That should do it!!! We still need to find a tazer. Judy, can you mug a cop? Or a judge!!!!!!!

I will never live that down, huh?

Katie and Josh just left with my car to go have her ultra Sound done. So in a few hrs I hope to know the gender of her baby. :) I was supposed to have gone with, but last night I got a virus and today feel like crap, so opted to stay home rather than subject myself to dealing with him when I'm already not feeling good.

I have yet to speak to him since he pulled his stupidity, and am in no rush to. I let them take my car today because his brakes are very bad and I don't want my dd and grandchild at risk. They're going into a city of about 60,000 people, so will most likely need decent brakes along the way.

Today was the first time I'd let him in the house... and I made a point to stay in a different room so I wouldn't have to see him.

Dear Tink,

I'm so sorry you're going through this. It is very exciting though that we'll know the baby's sex!

Post as soon as you can please.:D

Well it seems the baby is just as contrary and sneaky as it's parents. LOL They couldn't get a good view to see what gender the baby is! Everything they could see looks good and normal thank God. They said she's 17 weeks and 3 days along so is due July 29. Katie was let down about not learning the babies gender... and depressed by the due date which is the exact day a very close friend died just 2 yrs ago. :( Sad that that was the first thing that came to her mind when they gave her the date.

So she came back in a depressed mood. :(

Maybe it'll show it's little "privates" next tim

It might make Katie feel better if you suggested that her friend is watching over her and the baby.I did that for my stepmother. My Dad had died just under a year before Mackenzie was born on my stepmother's birthday. I called her and told her that my Dad had sent her a gift - her first great grandchild. She told everyone that, and it made here really feel that he did!

What a beautiful thing for you to do Judy. Tell Katie what a great way honor her friends memory. Another thing..unless it is a scheduled C-section..how often are babies, especially first born, are born on the due date?

Thanks Janet. I don't know the stats, but I doubt if it's that often.

It doesn't have to be that actually born on her due date, it will be close enough, I'm sure. I was a week late with Jessie.

That's what I was thinking too. Babies aren't necessarily born on their due date so I wouldn't worry about it too much. You just can't let things like that get you down. There is probably 100 other dates that have memories associated with them too but every day is a new day. Too bad that you didn't find out if the baby is a boy or a girl. I guess that he/she wants to be a surprise!!!!!!

Has she told you any names she may be thinking of yet? I know it's early, but some expectant moms have had their child's name picked out when they were 12 years old.

Just reading this, and I hope everything works out for your daughter. I know this has to be so hard for you.
