That's so cool. So what are the proposed names for the new little one?

Don't take this the wrong way, but we're not telling anyone that. :) I promise that we'll let people know when the names have been given.

That's cool. Just curious. It must be something grand indeed if it is top secret! *rubs hands together* Now I can't wait. How long do I have to sit on the edge of my seat before I find out?

It's not such a big mysterious thing as all that; I just mean that we're not telling anyone. Part of this is because we don't want to have arguments with people about the names we're thinking about, and it's easier if we can just say "we're not telling anyone", so that an individual person's feelings don't get hurt. But part of it is that we simply won't make a final decision until he actually shows up; it seems discourteous to make that call without meeting him first. (Besides, we could have been fooled by the umbilical cord. :) )

Megan's due on the 23d (or the 26th, depending on who you ask). Which means "any time within the next month", basically.

In the grand traditon of Mom looking vaguely Asian, me looking vaguely southern European, and now you two sounding Welsh--when we're all Irish-ish mutts. :)

If you name your child Zaphod I will do an intervention.

"No, just a Zaphod Beeblebrox; didn't you hear I come in sixpacks?"
