Ella, Kate, and we need a name


I love the idea of having more kids in our family. Getting them here I love less.

Sure, i love the month or so between 5 and 6 months when i'm not nauseous and not entirely uncomfortable yet, but that month is short lived and I can't believe how miserable i am already and I still have until Dec! the southern heat doesn't help.

Kate continues to point at my belly and say "ball"? No, kate, BABY. I'm hoping to have a name for the kid soon so we can stop referring to it as a "she."

I'm looking for a solid, manly, one-syllable name. I vote Kyle. Kyle votes it's too confusing. I also like Caleb, Mason, Ethan, Grant, and a few others. Feel free to offer suggestions. We are in need.


-----------------
Also, can maternity clothes get any uglier? Oh, wait, they just did! I'm looking for something with style inbetween "tent" and "speed suit." And no, all those cute layers won't help me in 100 percent humidity.
-----------------------------
Pix: Ella went to timeout for tormenting Kate. When i came back Kate decided to keep her company in the corner. Sorry about the no shirts but my kids love being naked. We are working on that.

Ella also told me this week to tell my brain to tell my mouth to not be mad at her after she took all the clothes off our hangers in the master closet.

Still not sure what was trying to accomplish although today she was talking about becoming a bear and hibernation and finding a cave . . .

First Day of School

Ella woke up wednesday and said, "All i dreamed about last night were fairytales and school. There was a unicorn, and a troll too."
I hope our son likes pink, because if you can't tell by her getup we have plenty of it at our house.
