Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas to you all! We had a great Christmas with my family in person and Alan's family via webcam. We were blessed with a lot of great presents for the baby. Alan's mom even said that we will get our presents later but that all the gifts she sent were for the baby! We love it! My parents got us all the baby bedding and Alan's parents sent us some beautiful hand knitted outfits and a baby blanket. My parents and sisters also bought me the glider rocker that I have been wanting. However, after Alan and Dad put it together, Alan sat down in it and didn't get up the rest of the evening. I think I will have to fight for it! :)

We are hoping to get this kid named by the middle of January so we can stop calling him "the baby" so help us out by voting on your favorite of our finalist names. I bet you can all guess who had the influence on the last of the three names. If you have other ideas, respond to this post with the ideas. We are still open!

you could just go with the always majestic jimi. i'll probably call the kid jimi anyway because it's a nice name and i'm lazy.

perhaps you could have a voter thing on what other people are considering calling the kid because nobody calls babies by their names when they're tiny. choices could include: smoochie cuddlepants, boo boo sweetie monster, honey bunny kitty baby, poop, snuggly wuggly, his majesty the king of all things cute.

chris suggests lyle tamarind brady or peter frampton brady. get framped!

yikes! i forgot him. "not bad for a girl, ms. white." what a toad.

we were thinking lyle lyle crocodile, but now it's all ruined.

still, peter frampton brady is awesome like nothing else. what about jacob hendrix?

other options: absinthe depp brady, motorcycle joe brady, maximus pantalones (max's full name) brady, beehive felix brady, cheddar, turkey creek slim brady and, in honor of a fallen comrade, evel knievel brady.
