fleaWe had our 20-week ultrasound today, and the Armadillo's parts are all in the right places, including the boy-part. mr. flea immediately said, "I can pass down all my little brother annoying techniques!"
I am a little bit back to "Ack! What do I know about boys!" But as mr. flea points out, he has some experience with boys, and really, not that different from girls except for the plumbing. Certainly at first, anyway.
Now wasn't I clever to always buy unisex clothes?
As an aside, my mother has decided to disdain the nickname 'the Armadillo' preferring to call him 'Adirondack.' She also wouldn't call Casper by our nickname, but had a tendency to refer to her as 'Carparthia Rastafaria." Conclusion? My mother is a control freak, also possibly kooky.

Boydom makes the name-conundrum harder. Hm.
