Naming A Baby...

We are yet to officially determine baby girl's name. There are two reasons for this. Number one, there are a lot of really cute girl names out there. Number two, we do not want her to have a name that is very popular, but I do really like some of the names in the top ten. I hated having five other Jennifer's in every class I was in, so I am pretty strict about this rule. I did notice today that Brady is a very East Coast name (thank you Mr. Tom Brady, and no we did not name our son after him) and the girl name that is in the lead so far is a Southern name. Apparently we are not fond of our midwestern roots.


On another note, we had a strange turn of events happen and we are having someone look at our house on Sunday. It is not on the market, which is why it's so strange. We found a house we love, thanks to our realtor, Julie Hubert. We asked her to call their realtor to see if they would take contingency bids. It turns out that their realtor is one of the owners of the house. The house had been purchased from a foreclosure and was flipped. So...this guy wants to look at our house and he might buy it to flip it. We have been preapproved already, so that is one step down. The next thing we need to do is have them offer us something that we can financially afford. After that, we have to make them an offer that they will take. So, there is only about a 10% chance anything will happen, but it could turn out to be a cool thing.


Baby girl is moving and kicking a lot. Brady is still being cute.

Cute....

We started to buy clothes for baby girl (she does not have a name yet). Apparently, I think a lot of the clothes are cute. Brady has started carrying them around the house saying "cute, cute". He's one smart cookie.

It's A Girl...

We just found out that baby #2 is a little girl! Everything looked great at the ultrasound. We are very excited to have one of each!

2010...

I can not believe that this year we will have another baby, quite similar to this one :) David and I were working on baby names again today (and no we have not landed 100% on anything yet), so we just decided to see what other name Brady could pull off. This may not have been the best theory since #2 could look nothing like him, but it was all we had. I still think Brady looked more like a Henry when he was a newborn. A very cute Henry, but a Henry none the less. If we end up having a girl this time, we will not be naming her Henry~don't worry.

Lately I have had multiple people tell me Brady looks like my Dad. I find this funny because for so long everyone kept saying he looked like David's twin. I will say that if you look at my baby pictures you can definitely see how he is my kid. I can't let David take all the credit :)

I ordered some more maternity clothes (compliments of Christmas money from my parents) and I am quite pleased with them. I am pretty sure I will not fit in the medium size by spring, but that's okay, I'll have to order some spring clothes then anyway. And since I'm shy about weight gain (I gained 70 pounds with Brady), I'll let everyone know I am up 11 pounds with this one so far. Hopefully I will not take that number up to much more!

We have our ultrasound one week from today and we should know if #2 is a boy or girl! We are still planning on keeping the gender a secret, but we may reveal the gender and not the name. We'll see!
