first off, congratulations.

second, as the father of a 4, 2.5 and 9 month old, and around the same age, I will offer the following advice.

enjoy sleeping in now, because you won't get to do it again until you are old
stuff changes after the baby comes. You can prepare all you want, but everything changes and you can't understand until it happens. Prepare for that
Minivans are not bad things, especially after the first kid. THere is comfort in knowing that you can toss the kids in the van while loading the car seat for the youngest, and the kids are not loose in a parking lot
what your wife's body will go through is nuts. Wait for the day you see her walk with one leg pointed sideways because her hips shift. It happens around 8 months or so. It looks freaky and looks like it hurts.
Epidurals are your friend. THere are no heros in there. Get your wife to get one.
At the delivery, you are a complete afterthought/inconvenience for the hospital staff. Plan for that.
find out early where to go park at the hospital. Seriously, it will take a lot of stress off your plate when the day comes.
Knocked up isn't that far off from the truth on this
There is an entire industry built around paranoid first time parents. Every crib you look at will likely be recalled or deemed no longer safe by subsequent models. Same for strollers, toys, carseats, etc. You will spend a fortune. A good stroller or two are good investments though
Have fun and enjoy a laugh or two with the mom. It really is enjoyable.

congrats again
