OK, This is Ridiculous

So I don't know how it got conveyed that Megan and I don't want to tell anyone what we're having. Nothing could be farther from the truth. We wish someone would've taken the reigns here. Megan wanted to scan the ultrasound, but we don't have a scanner at home. She has one at the school, but she's usually so tired when she gets home that no scanning ever gets done. I've been sick, we've been out of town, I've had tons of homework, yadda yadda yadda. So yeah, we meant to tell you all (or have Mom tell you, but apparently we didn't tell her that she could tell) right when we found out, but it didn't happen. I guess all y'all just got some bonus antici...............pation free of charge.

So here is the official statement as to the gender of our yet-to-be-born child: it's going to be a boy. We intend to name him Rodney McAllister Badger. We chose the name because it's a family name on both sides. Megan had an uncle Rodney who died shortly after his mission. Of course on the Badger side we have our great great great grandfather Rodney Badger. We don't plan on calling him Rod for short. If we do give him a nickname, it'll probably be Mac. Either that or Dinglydell Slaptyback.

So there you have it. Now you know...the rest of the story (say it in your head like Paul Harvey).
