Bug or User error? Unable to set TextBlock's VerticalAlignment property to Center

Hmmm. . . I'm losing my mind. . . or am I?

I'm creating a WPF app for some basic data entry. I'm using textblocks to label the textboxes but ran into a snag. Why can't I vertically center the textblocks? I can't change the vertical alignment at all. Regardless of what I value I set on the property, the textblocks remain at the top. I want them centered! I can change the horizontal alignment no problem.

The contents of the XAML file, including the styles, are included below.

I am not 100% sure why it is not centering, probably has to do with the height set on the elements, but what you can do is apply a padding to the TextBlocks to get them centered with the TextBoxes.
