Well, Mom is finally reporting in here. This is the last scheduled week of pregnancy. I am so achy (not labor achy, just achy all over) and tired (can't sleep for more than 2 hours at a time). Since the other two did not make an appearance until much later than their due date, I don't look for a baby until a couple of weeks from now. Braedon came a day before his scheduled induction (2 weeks later than due date) and Colby had to be prodded out 2 weeks later than his due date. Mom says my two siblings and myself all came three weeks after our due dates. And as of last Tuesday, there was no dilation. So... we wait... Names... I teach preschool and so many names already have personalities tied to them in my head, so that is somewhat limiting. Ron has told me that if it is a girl I can name it what I want. And unfortunately for Colby, Wendy did not make the list (sorry Mictay). Not sure how he will take that. Also some of the names suggested above won't work due to their similarities to close family. My rather large family has a tendency to use the same names over and over and I want my children to have their own first names, but have chosen middle names that tie to family. Ron is so much more particular about boys' names and we had a rough go of it coming up with Colby's name. It took many months. He wants the name to be 'normal' and not too 'sissy' and also some of the names I have suggested have negative ties in his head. Girl (middle name will most likely be Lynne, family name) Alyssa Grace Emma Juju Boy (middle name will probably be Lewis or Lynn, family names) <these are my choices and have already been nixed by Dad> Gavin Payton Jared Maxwell (would go by Max) Juju Board name I like GloWorm or GummiWorm Keep the suggestions and thoughts coming.

Love the middle name of Lewis, strong name. Clive Lewis (after the great writer) Owen Lewis Aidan Lewis Michael Lewis Christopher Lewis Trevor Lewis (was going to name my son Trevor but grandma almost had a heart attack at the thought of her grandson having an english name, therefore Conor - Conor Lewis wouldnt be bad ) Girl: DanieLynne (just kidding!!) Mariel Lynne Malena Lynne Amanda Lynne Arianna Lynne Maeve Lynne Isolde Lynne

How is "Isolde" pronounced? Is it "I Sold", "Ee-Sold" or "I Sold-ah" or "Ee-Sold-ah?" For that matter, how do you pronounce "Maeve?" Is it "Mayv?"

Maris, what is your son's name? My son's name is Ryan. If we ever get a second child, some choices are Riley, Meaghan, probably something Irish...

my son is Conor. I have never been one for nicknames. I usually call people by the names they are given at birth.

I love the names Emma and Grace. How about Siobhan..pronounced Shevan? The child might have to constantly explain her name, though. More names: Liane (Leeann) Brianna Sierra Melanie Boy: Thad Joshua Phillip Brent Brett Shane

lol Julie. I never thought of that perhaps because it wasnt pronounced like the sneaker and she was born long before the shoe company was formed.
