Drumroll please

So, we're having a .....................................................................................

.....................................................................................
.....................................................................................
.....................................................................................
.....................................................................................
.....................................................................................
.....................................................................................
............................................................baby!

Ha, just kidding! I know you want more information than that.

O.K., the gender of the baby is ...................................................................................

.....................................................................................

.....................................................................................
.....................................................................................
.....................................................................................
.....................................................................................
..............................................................something that we're not going to find out for another 5 weeks!

So, the doctor was too lazy to wait a minute for the baby to flip around during the ultrasound. "It's too early to tell" is Japanese for "I don't want to have to take the time to find out the sex, and I don't care if you really want to know. You're in my country, and you're going to do things my way. Deal with it, buddy."

Well in the United States of America I still had to wait until 21 weeks to find out the gender, so poo on those doctors too!

Hey! My name is Tara, and I'm applying for the 2009 JET Program. I was googling my way around, looking for help with personal statements, when I came across your blog. I ended up reading just about every entry. Your stories are amazing! If you don't mind, I'd like to continue to read about your journey. :) Also, congratulations on the baby!!

Thanks! Please feel free to read anything. :) Let me know how your JET application process goes. It was more than a little stressful for me.
