We just found out we are having a girl! Due May 10th with our first, we just had a gender reveal party with friends and family and i'm too excited not to share. Plus there's speakers in the background ;)

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Congrats! You will have so much fun. We have a 1 year old girl and also have another due in June. We did not find out the sex with our first, we loved the surprise, but will find out for this one in our next ultrasound.

    Catch up on your sleep now!

    Many praises for you and your wife, she has " That Glow" about her that most women get when they are happy beyond belief. It's great to see a young couple who are "ready" to start a family.

    Good luck and take in every moment, our youngest left for college this past summer, and I still can't get accustomed to not having any kids around.

    Broke? Yea probably.

    Emasculated? Hell no. Real men make GREAT fathers.

    Headphones? Maybe. But all my kids LOVE music. If either of you can carry a tune or play an instrument, even better. One of my favorite recent moments was after I put my 2 year old twins in the car, I ran back in to grab my bag. When I came out Mikeala was leading Bennett in a rendition of "twinkle twinkle." Unprovoked, on their own. Even if you can't sing, share the music with your kids and sing to them man, its a joy and great for their little brains.
