It's a...

I would like to officially apologize for the time delay involved in posting this blog. As many of you know, Julie and I left 'da Bronx on July 1st and drove to Idaho the next day. During our trip to Newark's Liberty International Airport, one of us (who will remain nameless to protect his fragile ego), left one of his bags on the New Jersey Transit train. This bag contained my laptop, digital camera, and checkbook. Needless to say, much time was spent ensuring that the money in our checking account remained ours. Additionally, the lack of a computer has made it difficult to blog. However, after a highly successful family reunion in Idaho, we are now safely ensconced at Julie's parents in Elk Grove and are free to begin blogging once again.

So, to move on to the reason for this post. After tallying up the votes, 45% of those polled felt that we are having a boy (including Julie), 40% believed that we are having a girl (including the author), and 15% felt that we were getting both! After an exciting sonogram that had our baby hopping around all over the place (I would post a new picture of the baby, but those were in the infamous bag) we discovered that 45% of the respondents were correct! The baby is a boy. We're both so excited that we can barely stand it. Stay tuned for more updates and an exciting picture of my new facial hair.
