Drumroll please.....
We
are
having
a
BOY.
Number 3 in case you have lost track.
Quite frankly, I went into shock. But at least now you know to suggest boy names.

Here is where I make an announcement
Yes, I'm pregnant! 4 months or so. And while exciting, I make my blog announcement so I can share this funny story.
The boys are SO EXCITED and they ask everyday whether I know yet if it is a girl baby or a boy baby (I don't). Sam wants a boy baby and Jack wants a girl baby. The good news is, one of them will get what they want. They also want to discuss names, and let me tell you, they are quite opinionated about it. They have all sorts of ideas that I don't like, and so far they don't like any of my name choices either.
To almost every name idea, Sam says "That's a bad name, mama. BAD. NAME."
I suggested to Jack we name a girl "Lane." We could call her "Laney," I told him.
"LANEY C***? Mom, that totally sounds like LAMEY C***!"
I laughed and laughed. Of course, the new nickname might be enough to rule out the name entirely. Aren't they helpful?
If you haven't experienced our naming process before, we come up with lots of ideas and hardly share them at all. We put up a list in the hospital and make everyone vote. Then we choose at the last minute right before we have to leave the hospital (and that is the deadline so I don't have to go back and redo the paperwork later), and ignore the results of the vote entirely. Want to participate in the fun? Bring on your name ideas!*
* Paige is already on the list, but we will still let Paige take credit for suggesting it.

I like bags, too!*
do you {like} bags? if you're anything like me, my mom, or my sisters, you are on a lifelong quest for the PeRFeCT bag.
win a free bag!! maybe. i can't guarantee anything, but it's worth a shot and they are giving away 1 bag per hour. you've got nothing else to do, right?
*for purposes of full disclosure, I copied this post entirely from my sister, Alisa. But I'm sure she won't mind!
