The Name Game

Why oh why is it so darn hard to agree on names. My viking and I just can not seem to see eye to eye with this one. I have narrowed it down to 3 girls names and I just need the man to pick 1 of them. He said no to all the boys names I have picked, he wants a James JR, a son named after him. No way though Mr! Does anyone else find that lazy and conceited or is it just me? Our children need to have their own identity I feel, not start off following in one of their parents shadows. Names are hard. I mean think about it, You're picking the name that will follow the most important person of your entire life for the rest of their life. Like sheesh, talk about a serious commitment to a word here. I know I have time to pick, I mean I don't even know if we are having a girl or boy yet, and although I hope the baby is a girl (hence why I am already picking girls names first) I should probably chill out on needing to find a name till I find out what gender my baby is.

What are some of your favorite names?

It's been a while since I came on here and man oh man how things have changed. it's about time I start keeping up with it all.

Life taken a beautiful turn and my significant other and I are now expecting our first child together. I'm already a mom to a wonderful 5 year old but this will be the first time I experience pregnancy and birth and all the joys and hardships of a newborn, yay! As of today I am 7 weeks and 2 days in, I have already started looking at girls names because I'm keeping my fingers, arms, legs, and toes crossed that its a girl. keep your fingers crossed for me too! My other half seems to be genetically disposed to having boys but I am hoping to break that cycle. Yet, no matter what my beautiful bundle ends up being I will love my baby all the same.

Now the craziness begins. Do I find a way to be a stay at home mom or do I find a new job to afford daycare. Oy, now that's the big dilemma right now. Of course I would love to stay home and take care of my world and be the one seeing all the big and little moments, guiding my child in all sorts of directions. I just have to find a way to make it happen.

If any of your have thoughts please feel free to share and toss ideas around. Hearing from you is always appreciated.

Namaste

Let me rant. Let me share.

Post number one.
Here is somewhere I plan to rant about my thoughts, life, hope, disappointments, and share photos along the way that I take and enjoy.
Life is a journey and I want to share that. No one may ever read this or maybe one day many will. For now here I am blogging away, doing something I enjoy immensely, sharing my life.
