Drum Roll Please..................

It's a girl!!!!!!

The ultrasound tech of course had to preface it with the usual disclaimer, but it seems pretty certain that our little Blasto is on Team Pink. The rest of the ultrasound went well, too. Ten little fingers and toes, the heart beating happily away at 150 bpm, and all the other major limbs and organs where they're supposed to be. She was playing with her hands and sucking her thumb the whole time. It was quite adorable. She was also a little wiggle worm. We got some pictures, but it was hard to get good shots because she kept moving around.

No news yet on where we'll be living when Blasto makes her grand entrance. Pat called the guy who's in charge of giving out the assigments, but he won't have any slots to discuss for a few more weeks. Pat will try calling again after we get back from our vacation. I had prepared myself for no news, but it's still disappointing. At least the Army is teaching me patience!

So happy for you to become a member of "Team Pink" as you have affectionately named it. I'm not a real girly person, but it is fun to dress little ladies up everyday=)
