Hi Kiddo!
I had a good birthday yesterday but, imagine this, we spent a lot of time talking about you.
We took your cousin Andrew to the beach with us and he was telling me how much he cleans his house. I said I need to get me one of those kids to clean. He said I would have to pay him. I said, No, I will have to have my own kid to clean my house. Later, he said "Aunt Stacy, I hope this pregnancy is successful." I just thought that was the nicest thing. Then, he finished it off with "But, you can't make that baby clean until he is older." haha.
I have been trying out more names. Nate and Joey are out. So far, the only contenders are still Sebastian and Alexander. I am going to use Elijah today. I told your dad that we probably won't choose an official name until we *see* you. I posted a poll on your blog about our choices. Here are what your family and friends voted for you:
Sebastian - 2, Joey - 1, Nate - 0, Alexander - 9, Noah - 3
Jillian - 4, Maggie - 7, Allie - 1, Jessie - 2
Your dad told me last night that he wants your first word to be Fox - as in Fox News. OY. He said he is already brainwashing you to think like him because when I am sleeping, he is playing Fox news to my tummy so you are getting an early ear full. Yeah, we are so canceling cable soon.
I got 4 new voicemails yesterday to add to my arsenal I was telling you about - Great Gramma Lang (that was a score since she doesn't leave voicemails!), Uncle Jeff, Debi D and Gramma Debbie. Lots of texts and facebook posts too!
Finally, I had an interesting conversation with your dad last night. I asked him if he thought I would end up being the bad ass parent that I think I will in my head. He said "No." I said "Seriously?" He said "I can see myself being the disciplinarian before you and saying 'I brought you into this world and I can take you out.'" Hmmm...I think we will create a new poll and see what your friends and family think....
