I don't know, maybe I should wait and make JenniferZ and teaforfifty submit their guesses before I reveal the sex.

The question is, will Tabitha die from curiosity in the time it takes those two to respond ?

To answer Tabitha's other inquiry (about pictures), I haven't put any pictures up for 2 reasons 1) We lost the battery recharger for our camera in the move (months later, having given up finding it, DH is supposed to be working on buying a replacement) and 2) I haven't gained any weight yet, I'm still in my regular pants, and I don't look pregnant. And actually #2 combined with the fact that I'm not really feeling a ton of movement (as in, I can think of twice so far that I felt something that I knew was the baby), were worrying me a little bit. BUT, today, the baby was measuring right on for dates, so yay!!!

Okay... I'll stop torturing Tabitha now-- there were two arms, two legs, two feet, two hands, a four-chambered heart, an intact spine, and...

(check the comments)

Assuming cooperation from The Fetus (or "Chewbacca," as DH insists on calling the baby), we will find out weather it is a he or a she on Monday. Soooo... what do you think it is?

Me? I have no idea. Really. Not a clue. And I am notoriously bad at guessing the sex of other people's babies, too-- so don't feel bad if you are wrong.

DH thinks it's a boy.

Record turnout.

The election of the first black president.

I am proud to be an American tonight.

(And I have a headache from crying through Obama's acceptance speech.)

Just got back from voting. This is the last year that Washington state will have polling places, starting next year we will "pull an Oregon" and go to all absentee ballots. With all of the long lines and voter registration problems in other states, maybe this is the right way to go-- but there is something nice about the ceremony and ritual of going to the polls to cast your vote. I will miss it.
