The baby is making itself known! Over the last week, I've had a few tiny little touches from the inside - mainly when I'm sitting in the car. It must be something about how my seat is positioned, because the rest of the day it's quiet. It woke me up two nights ago and scared me to death. That was the first significant "flutter". I thought Andy had reached over and touched my stomach, but when I woke him up to ask him (the obvious fact that he was sleeping didn't occur to me until the following day - hey, it was the middle of the night!) he swore it wasn't him. :) We're pretty sure it was the little one. Or I'm having some very realistic dreams!
A lot of people have been asking me about names. We haven't talked about them much. I have a few that I like, but we haven't discussed them at length. Any suggestions to consider? And don't say a name that you'll be mad at me for using! :) We have decided to wait until the gender is identified to really talk seriously about it but I am open to starting a list of options. Okay - I'm lying. I already have a list started. But it's not a long list. Okay, I've gotten through the P's. But I want it to be a good name!! Something significant - with a good meaning or after someone we love or something that represents us. I used to have so many ideas about what I would name a child - with all of my friends I always had so many names to offer as suggestions. But now that it's real - now that it's OUR child - this decision seems so much more serious. I don't know how anyone decides on a name!

I love the name Kate. It's so simple and elegant. BUT Mark has nixed that name as he had some girlfriend in highschool named Kate and he cannot have his child remind him of some other girl! I won't be mad if you use it! In fact I'd be happy!!!
If it is a boy, I think you should name it Steve or Mike because we don't have enough of those names in this family :) just kidding... Mom
I have a couple of names that I absolutely love, I wouldn't be mad if you used them, just know that as much as I swear I'm not having anymore kids If I did end up having another one I'd still use the names! :) For a girl I love the name Eden and for a boy I love the name Noah (also they go so well with my other kids names) lol. Anyways those are my faves though. I also like Potter or Wyatt for a boy and other names for girls I like are Ava and Lily. So there were mine. Hope you don't think they were horrible names!
Take Care. :)
