the name

Today I was so bored that my eyeballs were falling out and my muscles were oozing onto the floor. Todd went to watch a football game at a friend's house and I was missing him. This was my first (of many) emotional day of pregnancy. It makes me wonder why we decided to get pregnant. I'll remember in May...

So, I decided to go to the store with the kids and get stuff to make rice crispies with Halloween M & M's. Junk food is always good when you're bored and/or emotional.


I also saw a pretty fall arrangment I got. They also had a gardenia with a flower in bloom and I took a good long whif and it made me instantly happy.
I then got on Craigslist and KSL and looked at antique dressers for Katie's room and that was fun, too. Then I played tickle chase with Katie and her little giggles were so adorable!

Todd and I picked out the names:
Abigail (Abbie) Mary
or
Nicholas Maxwell
or Nicholas Bradford

My parents hate the name Abigail, so I decided to let you know early so that you can get used to it:).

I'll find out the gender either right before Christmas or right after. Let's start making a list of guesses for the gender. Those who are right, get a little present from us. Those who are wrong get to buy us dinner (just kidding).

My guess is a boy. Glad you were able to do some stuff later in the day.

Love you,
Dad

i want some of those rice crispie treats! :) i love the names!!! i pick maxwell for the boy middle name. i need a little while before i decide if it's a boy or girl... my ESP doesn't work until the baby is a little bigger. ;)

Mmmm, your treat looks good. I hope, for Katie's sake, that you have a girl, so that's my guess. :)

Can you send those rice crispies my way? They look yummy!

I think it's a boy... 'cause that's the Brockbank tradition. But a girl would be great, huh? I love the names 'cause it will be the name of our grandchild. I even like Abby-- and if you want to name her Abigail I'll love that too. I can't wait!! I wish you guys could come over!

I'm thinking pink, however because it is causing you so much nausea it's probably a boy--or twins, if it is twins you have to name one after me!
