It would mean a lot if you named him after me Joe.

This is a pretty scary prospect!

However, what is REALLY funny is that the due date is the weekend of the Ride with the Champs! When I was told this I was dumbfounded!

I said, " Dude, you couldn't avoid February?" Who was in charge of planning here?

There are all sorts of entertaining possibilities here as we go forward! :bonk:

On the bright side, JR will be in the home before the kid is old enough to be out wrecking sleds! Congrats. :beers;

Uhmmm..."Thanks" guys...

Yes, it's true, Cari and are expecting a baby boy this February, but the official due date is a few days after the RWC. The Classic Sled Round Up does happen to be 39 weeks from when Cari is due...(just saying it might be more than a coincidence)

Todd, I will ask Cari Deerest about your request, but I though we should name the little man after the most likely paternal suspect, so I am thinking Teve Stabor Rainville...

Come on guys. The kid is a Rainville. He'll be lucky to be here by April.

This time JDJR is not in charge of being "on time" Bob.

But I am sure he will have plenty of excuses.

On a more serious note....Use extreme caution when dealing with the fear mongering scourge known as the maternal fetal medicine doctor if you encounter one. I've had 2 very unpleasant experiences with different fear mongers. In both my experiences I felt they played my wife's emotions and ignored factual data.

Good luck.

Congrats Joe! Better start building that Spitfire now. The little dude will most likely be able to squeeze a throttle well before he takes his first steps.
