YOUR NAME

I was in the shower after my ultrasound today. I was thinking about you.

It was as though you were with me (which I suppose you were) and said to me, "Hi Momma, my name is..." And I knew your name.

I went to talk to your Daddy. I told him we had to talk about your name again. He seemed to know exactly what I did, at the same time. We knew your name.

I would spend the next few months wondering if you were a boy, wondering if I was wrong about your name, wondering if I had just imagined it.

But I really believe that you told me your name.

PHOTOGRAPHIC PROOF

There's a baby in here!

We got to hear the heartbeat today and SEE you!

I'm still in shock.

But beyond a doubt, this has been the best day of my entire life.

WEEB

We have agreed to nickname you WEEB.

It is a name that we found in one of the baby names books. Daddy and I had a good laugh about it. I think it's a perfect nickname, short for 'wee baby'.

BABY NAMES

We have been looking at baby names.

Wonko and I do not agree on many names. For boys, we like Marcus and Harrison. For girls we like Lilith, Lillian and favored Erin most. There is one name that we liked, a few years ago, but because of a popular TV show, we thought that name, being so pretty, would become too popular.

We will not officially name you until you are born.

I still do not believe that you are real.
