Go boys! Team Blue. I'm so excited for you! Hey, check out: http://babynamesworld.parentsconnect.com/ for baby names. I love it because it shows you the "bullying" nicknames people might use. Such a great idea! That ruled out a couple of names for us right there.
BTW it's not really 1 a.m. here, it's only 11 p.m. haha
Woo Hoo!!!! Congratulations! Here are a couple of books I highly recommend reading. Maybe look them over on amazon and see what you think -but I really enjoyed them.
It's a Boy: Women Writers on Raising Sons
Raising Cain: Protecting the Emotional Life of Boys
Speaking of books, it's never too early to begin reading to your baby. Babies are too young for toys for the first few months (obviously), but they are never too young to hear parents read to them. I've got a nice long list of favorite books if you're interested, just email me!
Thanks for all of the congratulations! And Heather, thank you for the book ideas. I'll surely be downloading them to my kindle soon (please let them be available in kindle form...) :)
To be honest, I am at a loss as far as names go. I have no idea. I mean, there are several names I like...I just can't see myself calling my child that. Gah!! We might not have a name for him until he's born.
We didn't name our daughter until she was about 3 weeks old. We chose a few names that we liked and after she was born we just didn't like any of the names we had. Honestly naming a baby is hard. I'm not into naming them before they are born because I think you have to meet them first, but that is just me. Though I think if there's a next time we might take even longer to name he or she! Haha. Oh well. Can't rush perfection!

I'm eager to hear your baby boy names. Let us know and then we can vote! :p
I got a Kindle for Christmas and I LOVE it. And just found out I can get free Kindle downloads from the library. Score.
