Gilmore Girls


So, a couple of months ago, I decided to finally listen to Jen and Megan, who had told me how great Gilmore Girls was, and start watching the show from the beginning on Netflix. I figured that I would probably be annoyed by the fast-talking, pop-culture-reference-spewing mother and daughter, but damn it if they weren't right. I love this show.
I am about half-way through the 4th season, and I am so excited every time I get a new dvd in the mail. I actually like and *gasp* respect the characters on the show. They work hard, they care about each other and they do the right thing 90% of the time. The other 10% is what makes the show even more believable, because nobody is too perfect. They all have their faults, and they make mistakes, but not at all in an after school special kind of way.
Anyway, I can't wait to see where the series is headed.

Oh, Boy...

Well, turns out that Baby Girl Brant is actually Baby Boy Brant. At least according to our latest ultrasound. I am still in shock, but she definitely showed us some baby junk that did not show up on our last ultrasound.
Above is a picture that supposedly shows boy...

We also did the whole 3-D Ultrasound thing, so we got a couple of shots of his sweet little face. He didn't want to cooperate, and apparently his head was pretty much wedged between the placenta and the wall of the uterus, so they are a little hard to see...


I like the bottom one, because he looks totally irritated that he was getting poked and prodded by the ultrasound tech. Plus we've been calling him a girl for the last two months, so I'm sure he didn't particularly appreciate that, either.
