Halfway there!

We reached the 20-week point this past Tuesday. Time for a belly shot!


The name game is still in its early stages, which means that we're having a hard time agreeing on much. I think we have pretty much ruled out names that end with "i", "y", "ey", and "ie"...but there is one exception. Jon recently purchased a subscription to Ancestry.com, and he has had a lot of success in tracing my Danish ancestors (the Larsens) back to the early 1600s. He stumbled upon an Amalie, and the name struck him enough to mention it to me specifically. I actually kind of like the name too, so it's on the list. It means "hard worker" and "eager", which is ok. A little weird, but ok.

Other names that we've seen so far that aren't too bad: Olivia, Ella, Emma, Tora (which Jon likes solely because it means "thunder"), Elena, and Simone. I guess we're partial to "-a" names.
