ETA: post-unlocked (24apr11) since now both sets of grandparents know.

Congratulations! I hope all goes smoothly.

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Been good so far, knock wood hope it stays this way.

...I don't want to alarm you, but you appear to have an alien parasite growing in your guts...

:-D

Totally. The last two weeks or so I've actually thought about the mechanism of pregnancy, and you know what? It creeps me out. Whoever decided that the best way to create new members of a species was to grow them inside of another? How bizarre is that?

[eliskimo.livejournal.com]

Wow! Congratulations!

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[world-rim-walke.livejournal.com]

Congratulations. I hope that it goes swimmingly.

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

It was swimming pretty happily this morning! :)

[fosveny.livejournal.com]

YAY! Very cool.

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

And Joel, smart man, knew right away that one of the most important questions, and one which will occupy us for some time I'm sure, is what we'll name it. :)

Congratulations!

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

There is something in the water.... Everyone I know seems to be getting pregnant these days.

Congratulations, hope it goes really well.

I was shocked at how many quite small children there were at Crown. The kingdom really is expanding the organic way.

Thanks!

[mariedeblois.livejournal.com]

Wow! Congrats!

I can only imagine how much this must be complicating the employment options calculations.... bonne chance. ;)

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Hence the whole "finding out we're pregnant, trying to sort out job options, residency permits, can I go bury my head in the sand?" feeling of a few weeks ago. :)

[zachkessin.livejournal.com]

Congratulations, its a little nerd!

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Totally!

[wolverine-nun.livejournal.com]

Congrats! Hope all goes well and s/he turns out a logician :)

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Probably what will happen is s/he will hit the teenage years and become a Continentalist. :)

[pedropadrao.livejournal.com]

Mazel tov!

Thank you!

[alphaggek.livejournal.com]

Congrats! That's a hell of an A&S project you got going there!

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Definitely conceived the period way. :)

[gxdm.livejournal.com]

Congrats!

You know, you could help me with an immigration law project I had. Multiple citizenships. :)

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, I think we'd have to remain in the Netherlands until the baby was two in order for him/her to be eligible for Dutch citizenship. That's unlikely to happen.

That is the best news I've heard all week. I'm always saying the smart, cute or lovely people need to breed more often, so as to outnumber the awful majority, and you're all three (your Young Man seems to be too) so that's a major win for the gene pool. Thank you for materially improving the human race!

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Improving the world, one nerd at a time.

[shaunacarrick.livejournal.com]

Congratulations! Hope that all stays well with you, and all your (employment and other) wishes come true!

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[felinophile.livejournal.com]

Congrats! Am very curious about your name list.

[actrealdon.livejournal.com]

I didn't think of it, but now the question is raised I am most curious too.

Also, congratulations!

[fatefox.livejournal.com]

Congrats! May everything work out as it's intended. :)

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[cryptocosm.livejournal.com]

Well. At least you know one job you'll be working at for a while.

Congratulations!

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Tenure-track, definitely. With no option of retirement. :)

[pogbody.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness! what splendid news! Exciting times ahead eh?
Many congratulations to both of you!

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Definitely lots of excitement ahead, hopefully all in a good way.
