It's a Boy!!!

WHAT?? IT'S A BOY????
We finally got the news! This morning Rachel had her ultrasound and, according to the people in the waiting room, you could hear all five of us crammed into the little room CHEERING when they told us it was a boy! Of course, we would have cheered just as loudly if it was a girl! It was just the suspense that was killing us!

So I'm going to have a grandson! You have no idea what an ordeal it was for Rachel to decide on Ellie's name 2 years ago. So now we're faced with figuring out a name she'll like for a boy. This is where I need everyone's help... if you have any great ideas for boys names, by all means let me know! I'll tell you up front, she doesn't like names that are too common (John, James, Bill, etc. are all out). And yet it can't be anything too strange (we won't be having any Moon Unit or Dweezil Zappa children)

So far we have a few names that are in the running . . . Vincent, Eli, Levi, Gideon, Lucas and Logan. If you've got any ideas, the game is on! We only have until the 1st week of December to figure out a suitable name... and ALL suggestions will be submitted to Rachel and Aaron for review!

I'm SOOOOOOOOOO excited to be a grandma again!

Ooh, I like this game. I have always loved Eli and Levi (from your list). One of my new favorites is Roman. (and by the way, don't worry about stealing my ideas. Not only does Michael say we're done - he also likes ONLY classic names). I've always liked Seth and Joel - either of which would go well with Ellie. Let's see, what else? Dominic and Nicolai are kind of unique, and I like them. I'll keep my ears open for other good ones! And congratulations to her! Boys are so much fun.

I have a Preston and a Bergen. Both suit them perfectly. My other favorites:

Dylan (Preston was almost Dylan)
Cole (Cole Weir sounds too much like cold beer!)
Jack
Landon (LOVE this...husband did not)
Brandon

Congratulations!!! Boys are a hoot!
