A couple of days ago, over on
my personal blog, I announced that my wife, Katie, and I are expecting another
baby! For those of you keeping score at home, that’s Babies: 8, Marbles Left
Rolling in My Head: 1.
We are super excited! It’s
kind of the only thing that’s been on our minds the last few days. But rather
than repost the story on PTA (you can read it here, instead), I thought I would
present for your viewing pleasure a video of Katie, 8 months pregnant,
performing stand-up comedy about the joys of pregnancy.
This was two years ago, when
she was very pregnant with our youngest, Lucy. It was my 40th Birthday Party. And
after years making me laugh at her witty observations about pregnancy (I’m 72% sure her observations were supposed to make me laugh; she may have been expressing frustrations, in which case I owe her a huge apology), I asked if she
would do stand-up at my birthday party. She had never done it. She didn't want to do
it. But before an intimate group of friends, she did it. And I think she was fantastic.
She is currently available for booking but you only have about 6 months to schedule her for your holiday
parties before touring season is over and baby season arrives.
