we finally decided on a name, but we want to tell our family in a fun way. we decided to put her name on the x-mas cards too so they say love, brandon, kara and ________. they went out today and should get there on tuesday. we're staggering the cards to make sure mom and mike, dad and heidi, erin and chris, sam and gayle, and tracy and brent get them first. the others will probably go out tuesday. we thought this would be a neat way of telling everyone and we're giving everybody a warning to make sure to check the mail in a couple days. when we told some family members today i think we actually stressed them out. hopefully just for a minute. i mean erin really tried hard to get me to tell her, but i resisted. i was literally sweating when i got off the phone with her she was making me work so hard. finally she just wanted me to narrow it down to 2 names, but i wouldn't even give her that. she was the one i wanted to surprise the most with the name since i didn't really surprise her in a creative way when we found out we were pregnant. so she can hold her horses a couple days. i made her put chris on the phone so maybe he can talk some sense into her. can you talk sense into a 37 week pregnant woman?
it's a huge relief to have a name picked, and one we both love.
plus not only did we pick a name, but b got to feel her moving around too! and i finally broke down and bought maternity pants. i thought it was difficult shopping before all this, but let's just say they don't make kids' maternity. which is a great thing, but i would really benefit from it. xs petite is still too big for me, but i found one pair that'll work.

1. You almost put me into labor! Ha ha ha!You were sweating and I was contracting! :)
ReplyDelete2. I guessed you were prego so you really didn't tell me. It was super sister sense that there was a baby in that belly. Not to mention I was on team girl :)
3.I think its super fun the way you are sharing her name. I just hate that the Walgreens guy/gal knew before me. I guess they don't have the investment in the name like moi
4. There is no way you can talk sense into a 37 week prego girl. Just you wait and see. Brandon can call Chris for assistance.
5.I'm going to check the mail shortly. We get ours super early but I feel like it won't get here until tomorrow.
6.So happy you found some jeans. And yes that would be terrible if they made kids maternity jeans. You'll fill them out eventually.
Oh dear Kara...Jeans was a tough one for me!! Finally found some at Gap and gap online, but they stayed a bit big on me for a while, except I didn't wear them too much since December was the end of my road and I got to wear drawstring pants to work. Lucky for me, I didn't have to buy too too many maternity pants. Good Luck in the venture of maternity cloth shopping. i know you'll have just as much fun as I did...can't wait to hear the name!
