It's a little BOY!

So I feel really bad that I'm just getting around to posting this fact now, although I figure more of you already know this via email or facebook. But you know now, and knowing is half the battle.

I am at the 20 week mark (5 months) and I have another 4 1/2 months to go until the little fella makes his first live appearance! That means we have only 4 1/2 months to:

1) Rearrange and paint the soon-to-be nursery

2) Move the washer and dryer from behind the kitchen to the little room behind our chimney

3) Baby-proof the house

4) Re-roof the house (has to get done anyway)

5) Buy a real bed frame for us

6) and of course, buy a ton of baby-related furniture, clothes and other cute and tiny yet expensive accouterments

Alright already, here are the cute pictures:

Side View, that's his head on the right

He's waving hello!

Poof! you're gone!

I woke up this morning feeling distressed but wasn't sure why at first. 

I looked around and after my eyes adjusted to what I was seeing, I realized that it's just all this ugly news everywhere lately that's getting to me (dirty politics, stock market crashing, people actually loving Sarah Palin, etc).

And it's so typical, isn't it? Outta nowhere, these people just barge in and start poking around with their self-serving, folksy sweet-talk.  Like I give a damn. It's pathetic and annoying - like a little yappy dog begging for attention. 

Whatever, people. Move along.

Senator McCain, you are NOT my friend!

Seriously, we're not friends, so stop saying that. Oh, and drop the maverick thing already - it's getting really freaking old and annoying. Tom Cruise is Maverick - not you. Although, if you were, does that make Palin "Goose?" (me personally, I would call her Iceman, but that's just me)

Also, you're really not giving me any reason to trust that you won't drop dead any moment - it was only half-way through the debate and you were already out of breath. Maybe a treadmill or a guest spot on Celebrity Fit Club would help? Just a thought.
