what's in a name?

sophia, hannah, sarah, kate, riley, emerson, madison, and so on... naming a child is so difficult. tim and i started throwing names out to each other back in september when we found out we were expecting. i remember tim telling me, we don't need to worry about this right now... we have until May.

for months, many people have been asking us if we have names for our baby. and our answer is always no. we would toss names at each other and almost always the other person would catch it with an ewwww,  nah, or just make a face at it. when we would agree on a name, it would be put in tim's iphone so we wouldn't forget it.

but now it is crunch time. i think we have agreed on a list of boy names but have absolutely nothing for a baby girl. i sometimes wonder if this baby is a girl and can sense she is not named yet... and that explains why she is holding tight... (well, that reason and who would want to leave a place where you are being fed ice cream every night?)

  1. I'm looking forward to seeing your baby. A good friend of mine is having a girl and today is her due date, but no baby yet.

  2. H and I have the opposite prob - we agree on a few girl names, but no boy names as of yet! and you gotta come up with a middle name too! so much pressure! :) i'm sure you'll find the perfect name just in the nick of time!
