Confession (AND NUMBERS!)

There is something you should know about my husband.  He is amazing, and handsome, and wonderful.  AND he loves superheroes.  Superheroes of all kinds.  He loves the movies, and t-shirts and the comic books.  The websites that tell about movies coming up, and who's playing who, and the break off shows like Smallville that tell the tale of Superman before he was super.

It's a love he shares with his brother and dad.  It's endearing, unless you are the one walking with them from one end of Chicago to another to get to the best comic book stores.  And then waiting in a sketchy store with nowhere to sit or stand without touching somebody else while they peruse the shelves for a great superhero adventure.

And I'm quite confident it's a love he is dying to share with our child as well.  So when I asked him how to "share" our November numbers with the world wide web, he suggested I look up issue numbers from Superman comics.   It's not the clearest way to share the numbers, because its not a super huge number for you to view... you have to look in the top left hand corner to find out...  But I suppose our new numbers are hidden on the cover much like a superhero often must hide his powers.  (Yeah - that was a weak stretch... sorry.)

So here they are... November numbers :)  Note the HUGE jumps... and celebrate with us!

For Girls we are number:





For Boys we are number:




For Siblings we are number:
