Not sure if anyone noticed but I haven't exactly been active at gaming or "foruming" this past year. And here is the reason why.

Oth and I have had some life-changing events to say the least. First of all, after I've been ill for some time, I finally got a clean bill of health. And November 2011 it happened. We got pregnant. And in August this year we were expecting. These last nine months has been a roller-coaster, not to mention exciting. I don't know who was looking forward to this the most, Oth or I, but we agreed that it would be awesome. The pregnancy went beyond great and I was healthy all nine months, with no sickness or urges to eat newspaper or glue. Also, you won't believe how amazing it is when the baby is kicking and having the hiccups! (and keeping you up all night)

Now, I could give you all juicy details, but since it's a male-dominated forum (no offence), I will spare you the trauma. But after labor and emergency c-section, our son came to this world Monday 13.08.2012 at 21:19. He was 3245g and 49 cm long. He is a healthy little boy, growing every day, and obviously takes most of our time. So between feeding, diaper change, singing lullabys, more feeding, more diaper changes, burping and cuddling, we haven't had the time to squeeze in any games at all. With a whole new life, a new boss in the house, new sleep pattern and washing baby clothes, I don't know when I will be back for more. Some things just has to go when you get a game changer like this in your lap.

Anyway, I am bantering, I can hear him ready for the next endeavor of the day. No rest for the wicked, and a lot of work.

But you know. It's totally worth everything. ALL of it.

Jeez, Oth really is seriously high maintenance! :blink:  :roflmao:

Big gratz to you both!   Keep in touch and when he starts sleeping through the night (not Oth this time) you'll start feeling the need for adult conversation again on our Teamspeak server! :P

Keep healthy in the mean time and we'll see you on the other side :biggrin:
