Sonogram Results: It's a Girl!
Carrie and I went to Guam Naval Hospital today in Hagatna and had the sonogram done. The baby is over 4.5 months old now, almost 5 months. And it looks like it's going to be a girl. So we are scrambling for girls' names. We are pretty confident of the middle name but have no real strong idea for the first name. So we are thrilled to also discover that everything is healthy and normal so far, so please keep praying for the health of the baby and the mother, who got stung by a Guam "boonie" bee which had her hand pretty swollen. We had two trips to the ER to get the swelling down for that. These bees out here are particularly nasty. But she's fine now.
Father's day, my first, was fun. I got to hear the baby's heartbeat for the first time in the ER that day. We also had a nice time walking on Gun Beach with the dog, who is a great swimmer.
In other news, my work is going well as Chief of Civil Law and Legal Assistance for Andersen AFB. I'm getting pretty involved in the military justice side as well with involvement in several drug case investigations right now that will probably be going to court. I was also elected vice president of the Company Grade Officer's Council for the base, but I'm serving as president since the newly elected president was tasked and sent to Afghanistan for six months immediately after our election. Carrie is good, and getting large. We go for long walks in the evening with Hazel, and we watch lots of movies. We've also had a lot of friends over to the house for dinner, and I'm getting better on the charcoal grill. We love our condo, and it's looking great!
