Hello, “B” members,
It has been awhile since I last wrote a blog. I live a rather boring life
but recently I have received some very exciting news.

やぁ、bのみんな
ブログを書くのは久しぶりだなぁ。

ずいぶん退屈な毎日だったけど、
今、とってもワクワクするニュースがあるんだ！

“We are pregnant!”
and my wife is having our very first child. Recently, in theStates(America) it has become common to say, “We are pregnant!”

 “僕らは妊娠した！！”
僕らに初めての子供ができたんだ。

近頃、アメリカでは妊娠したとき
“僕らは妊娠した”って言うんだ。

Of course,
I am not pregnant even though I am putting on a few pounds(gainingweight/getting fatter).

もちろん僕自身は妊娠していないんだけど。
（ちょっと体重が増えたりしてもね。）

My wife is! But we say, “We are pregnant,” in
order to show the togetherness(teamwork) of both man and woman, husband and
wife, boyfriend and girlfriend, that we are “ together(working together)”
in the process of having a baby. Though, I am very, very nervous about
having my first child and raising him or her, I am quite certain that no
matter(despite) the struggles(difficulties) my wife and I will succeed.

夫婦や恋人同志の深い繋がりを表現するように、
“僕らは”って言うんだ。
初めての子供だから、実はとってもとってもナーバスになっているんだ。。。
でもどんなに苦しくても、僕たち夫婦は乗り越えられるって確信しているよ。

“Do you want a boy or a girl?” is probably the most common question that
men receive when people find out about the baby. To be honest, I really
don’t care about the sex(boy or girl) of the baby, my only wish is for it
to be healthy.
I hope/wish deeply for the safety and health of both of “my little
ones”(affectionate/loving term for “child”) and my “my other little
one”(affectionate/loving term for “my small wife.”

“男の子と女の子、どっちがいい？”ってよく聞くよね？

正直、僕は気にしてないんだ。
僕の願いはただひとつ。 元気に生まれてくれることだけ。
小さな命（僕の心から愛する子供）が健康で生まれてくること。
そしてもうひとつの小さな命（僕の心から愛する妻）も健康であること。

“b” watashi no… has a
little different meaning… for me, “b” is for my baby 🙂

Wish me luck

“b わたしの英会話” の “b” は僕にとって
“baby” の “b” なんだ 🙂
