She shall be a Jedi, like her mother before her...

See the tiny lightsaber in her hand? David did that. Jedi I may be, photoshop wizard I am not.

In case you want proof that *I* am the Jedi of the family:

Yeah fine, so that's an old photo. I'll get to it. I feel like I need to get a Jedi robe just to have on hand. Maybe a lightsaber too.

I put the baby picture, with the title as a caption, on Facebook. As of around twelve hours later (mostly nighttime hours at that), it has gotten 74 likes and 24 comments. And what's nagging me is that I don't know if people just saw the ultrasound picture and said "congrats!" or if they actually saw the lightsaber and connected it to the caption... I'm in torment. I'M NOT JUST POSTING RANDOM ULTRASOUND PICTURES HERE! It's PURPOSEFUL. It's a joke.

Ah well.

This is partially why I have not posted anything on my blog for... well, however long it's been. Close to five months. It was not "Facebook Official" and so I wasn't going to put anything on my blog. And since I pretty much cannot think of anything else and have not been thinking of anything else for the past five months, there hasn't been much to write. I have probably lost my three readers.

Cue plan for turning blog into a somehow financially viable "mommy blog" somewhere in the future.

I thought about having a different blog for child-related things, but I feel that child-related and my-life will tend to overlap immensely and at least one of those will get abandoned.

So, to wrap things up:

Yes, she's a girl. As far as the ultrasound tech can tell, and she was completely confident and has been doing this sort of thing for eight years. Yes, I'm perfectly happy having a girl.

We're thinking Genevieve Rose for a name. It's not set in stone. Feel free to recommend something else. In the meantime, know who I'm talking about when I mention "Ginny."

I'm feeling fine. For the times I'm not feeling fine, you probably actually don't want to know.

I'm due June 10th. June's a good month for birthdays. I should know.

I am excited, expectant, and scared all at the same time.

No, I'm not giving her dreadlocks.

As far as the ultrasound went, everything checked out great. Ginny is right on track and looks completely healthy. And really, that's the best news.
