Let me get right to the point. I think i have Catholic genes.
Why? You ask.
Great question.
Here’s the answer…
My wife…my awesome, loving, caring, sharing, and frazzled wife is pregnant yet again!
That’s right…pregnant! With our fourth. 4th! #4! Quatro- as they say south of the border (or in most of LA).
So, it begs the question. Why? What the heck are we thinking? That answer is a little harder to find. Other than the basic birds and the bees (i mean, i do know how she is pregnant). However, that does not answer the burning question of why?
Why go for 4? Well, let’s just say we were not actually planning this one. But, i guess God had this gift for us, so now we will accept this gift and do the best we can.

I digress. i have searched long and hard for an answer to why the heck we are adding to the craziness that is the Hogue household. the only good explaination i can come to is that i have catholic roots in my blood.
or, since i do look like the love child of Joseph Smith (creator of the false religion of Mormonism) and Doris Day, maybe i have a little mormon blood in me.

Either way, it’s scary! very scary. Mostly because i think my previously mentioned wife might try to do serious bodily harm to me in my sleep. And you think i’m joking, i’m not. Have you ever seen a mother of 3 find out she is pregnant with your 4th child? Let’s just say it’s kinda like the first 20 minutes of “Saving Private Ryan.”

Well, whether i’m catholic, mormon, or just very fertile, it really doesn’t matter. All that matters now is having a healthy baby, and loving baby with everything in me.

By the way, my wife is fine now…that’s why God gives you 9 months! She is one of the greatest mothers i know. So i can’t wait to meet the newest little Hogue! I hope (if it’s a girl) that she looks just like her mom!

Peace. Out.
