We’re about one week away from the expected due date of Feb. 4, but the baby could arrive any time between now and then (hopefully not after). Kristin has two days of work left (today and Tuesday) and wants the baby out sooner rather than later.

It’s interesting to live day-to-day. We usually like things planned out ahead of time (especially Brian), but we try to avoid making plans too far out, just in case the baby comes. For instance, several colleagues in the PR industry and others have expressed interest in having lunch or coffee with Brian, but he doesn’t finalize anything until 1-2 days prior.

Also, we’re wondering if we go out somewhere, will Kristin’s water break? We’ve been at various restaurants and stores lately thinking that. Oops! Sorry Wal-Mart.

Uncategorized due date, water break

When the baby is born, we’ll be spending a lot more time at home, obviously. Kristin especially, since she is taking three months of maternity leave.

So what do we have planned to keep us occupied, outside of taking care of the baby?

As many of you know, Brian is involved in everything and will find it hard to cut back on all the organizations to which he belongs. Among his many projects planned, Brian will study for his Accredition in Public Relations (sort of like a Master’s in public relations that gives him the letters “APR” after his name) and begin brewing his own beer (a Christmas gift from Kristin).

Kristin plans on watching Brian change plenty of poopie diapers and sampling his home brew. She looks forward to geting back in shape by resuming a couple of her favorite activities–biking and jogging. In addition, she looks forward to taking the baby for walks around the neighborhood (once the temperature warms up).

Together, we’ll catch up on seasons 3-6 of “24” and play some more “Rock Band” on the Wii. Visitors are always welcomed!

Journal diapers, home brew

Hey everyone!

You’ve reached Brian & Kristin Plus One. Stay up-to-date with everything surrounding the birth of our son. Here’s a timeline as a refresher:

We found out we were pregnant back in May and began announcing to our friends and family beginning on July 12 (our five-year anniversary). At our 20-week appointment on Sept. 15, we found out we were having a boy.

Now we’re a short while away from our due date, Feb. 4. We have everything ready, from the carseat (in Brian’s car), to the baby’s room (he’s got so much stuff already) to everything in between.

We welcome your comments. This site is for you, after all.

Love,
 Brian and Kristin
