I've got nothing really... nothing. It must be the hormones raging in my expanding body but I just can't seem to think of anything to blog about lately. I mean, you can only take so many stories of the terrible toddler phase, Jeff's misery now that another great Aggie basketball season has ended gloriously at home with the outright WAC championship (although there is still a light at the end of the tunnel with the upcoming WAC tournament and the NCAA), and me complaining about gaining weight, feeling like my belly has stretched to it's max, never ending constipation and that pukey feeling on your tongue after you eat (I know TMI), feeling sea sick every time this kid moves, and anxiety over having our house still in transition with neither kid's room put together and wondering what happened since Friday to make the house a mess again. But I did splurge and buy some bedding from Pottery Barn for Ricco which will help me finally decide a color to paint the walls in his room (well for Jeff to paint). Oh and Jeff fixed the drawers on a dresser we bought Pearl at a consignment shop (I think it is super cute, Jeff thinks it's ugly) so Pearl actually has most of her clothes in her own room now rather than the dining room!
So alas, rather than bore you with what really goes on here, I thought I'd enlist some help with the "short list" of names Jeff has picked for the boy. At least first names, middle names are yet to be decided upon. As much as we love calling him Ricco, I'm thinking it probably won't be the top pick come May when he gets here. We do love this kid and I can't wait to meet him, but if you took a look around and saw that he has no clothes, no room, no crib put together, and no name yet (but we do have the car seat this time) you might think otherwise. Nothing "sticks" for me with the names. It's not that I hate any of them it's just that none of them are "the one" right now.
The short list:
- Cole
- Miles
- Carnell - yes this is still on the list.... if you know Jeff you might be able to figure out this is a NFL player who goes by the name of Cadillac - which I vetoed but let Carnell slide
- Lincoln
Let's hear what you think! I'd like to promise the winner or winners a prize but let's get serious, I'm lucky to get the laundry done every week!
