Today would have been my father’s 54th birthday. It also would have been one of the few times this year I would think to call him. This year I can’t, and I won’t be able to ever again.

Don’t get me wrong, I do still talk to him from time to time, but it just isn’t the same as being able to actually hear his voice in response.

It’s a Boy!

Jenny had her 20wk lvl 2 sonogram last Monday. Duckling is healthy, developing normally, and quite plainly male. (That last bit took the technician a while to determine, as duckling was not being overly cooperative.)

We have a 5 minute VHS video capture of part of the sonogram. We’ve subjected my parents too it already, Jenny’s parents are coming down Sunday to see it, and a few friends have expressed an interest in seeing it as well.

I may be digitizing and posting a clip online. Need to find a friend with a decent capture card.

The name game phase 2 has begun. Anyone have suggestions for boys names?

Too bad I didnt’ see this yesterday.

I would have bought something on thinkgeek just to get this shirt:

In order to save you the time to google a binary to ascii converter, (since I already did it) look behind the spoliers tag
[Spoilers] I shopped at ThinkGeek on April Fools Day, and all I got was this lousy shirt! [/Spoilers]

Man, I gotta post more…

I’m about to get bumped out of the top 5: [Link]

Last few weeks have been kinda hectic – been helping people move, been trying to meet quarter-end goals at work, been trying to get the apartment cleaned before Jenny starts nesting, been trying to find Duckling’s heartbeat with this little microphone thing a friend gave us.

I don’t feel so bad about that loast one, the doctor had some trouble finding it with the medical grade doppler at our (Jenny’s) last prenatal visit. In case you were wondering, everything is still a-ok. We may even be able to find out the gender soon.

This is just about the end of week 19. Almost 1/2 way there!
