At first Karlee was Colby\u2019s direct supervisor, they became friends outside of work on their weekends off, and quickly grew closer and developed a strong connection. After about a month as friends they both developed feelings for one another and upon realizing that they felt the same way, they decided they would start a relationship together that has grown day by day.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Q: What has surprised you the most about pregnancy?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: Karlee was most surprised by how much her emotions have full control over her, and let themselves out whenever they feel like it. Colby was most surprised about how fun it is to play with baby Thomas\u2019s kicks.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Q: Who will be the more organized parent?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: We think that we\u2019ll both have our areas of being more organized than the other, but neither is us will be \u201cmore\u201d than the other.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Q: Who do you think the softie will be?<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-55 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/karleecolby.baby\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image2-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/karleecolby.baby\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image2-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/karleecolby.baby\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image2-767x1024.jpeg 767w, https:\/\/karleecolby.baby\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image2-768x1025.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/karleecolby.baby\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image2-1151x1536.jpeg 1151w, https:\/\/karleecolby.baby\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/image2.jpeg 1284w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: Although we will both love and cherish our child, I think we\u2019ve both agreed that Colby will be much more of the softie out of the two of us.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Q: What family tradition are you most excited to share?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: We\u2019re both very excited to start our new holiday traditions as a family.
