We've got a name!

Aubrey and I have officially decided on a first name for our little girl. Copper. No, I'm not naming an element or talking about plumbing pipe. It's her name. This is a name that I have always liked and it's not your typical name, but we think it works. Over a couple margaritas, Aubrey agreed to the name and wanted it if we were to have a girl. If you remember the story of The Fox and the Hound, Copper is the name of the Beagle. That's where I got it from. So, let it sink in for a few days and then you can tell us how wonderful of a name it is. Now we just need to think of a middle name. I was thinking about using my mom's middle name, Belle. :)

Quote of the Day

Me: "I think all my shirts have oil spots on my belly."
Mom: "Sure, like dad's."

It's funny the similarities between a pregnant belly and my father's belly.

Week 21

I forgot to take this pic on Friday, which is the day that I've taken all the other profile pics. So, I'm actually about 21 weeks and 4 days here. I like my belly. When I eat and get full, I don't have to try and suck it in anymore. Being pregnant has it's advantages. Aubrey likes to tap on my belly like it's a fish tank.

When we had the ultrasound the other week, the technician said that our little lady weighs about 15 ounces. When I consulted my week-by-week book, it said that at 20 weeks the kid should weigh about 7 ounces. Hmmm. She better not be a big baby. I have a pain med-free birth to think about here.
