Still in awe...

Still completely bowled over by finding out that we're having a little boy. The more I think about it, the more delighted and thrilled I am. It seems like such enormous news to know too, I want to dance and sing and shout it from the rooftops and talk about it constantly with anyone and everyone.... very strange trying to focus on conversation about anything else whatsoever!

G and I have been talking about names, we are stuck trying to come up with one. Have absolutely no idea what to call this little chap! My current favourite is 'Spike' but not many people seem to agree! Suggestions very welcome please! Only criteria I have is nothing beginning with J, and not Tom for obviously reasons.

We are probably going away for the weekend so if I don't post for a few days, you know why!

If there's a 'theme' going on, it's not intentional. D got his name only because we liked it very much. I don't like any other Welsh male names much.

Don't tell G you don't like any other Welsh names :-) Oh well, Gareth sounds like some archaic form of a verb found in the bible. "They gareth for thirty days and twenty-nine nights, and on the last night they gareth no more."

Howard! You must call Mr. Bump Howard!

Can see why you might want to avoid Welsh names!

Personally, my favourite names are Callum and Lewis... Callum Lewis Jones? Mix some Welsh & Scottish!

I also happen to like the name Gareth as well so G -- Illegitimi Non Carborundum!

Gareth (another one)
