What's in a name?

Since telling everyone that Jessica is expecting, people keep asking, "Do you have names yet?" The truth is, we do have names picked out, but we don't want to unveil them until we know if it's a boy or a girl. Plus, there's always the chance that the names could change 117 times before the baby even makes the scene. Maybe everyone could email me with their own name ideas and I could post them here on the blog. Right now, for a boy, I like Radek, but I don't think Jess is too high on it.

In other news, Jessica is doing fine. She seems to be in a constant state of nausea, but I guess that's the way it be. As long as she keeps eating her crackers and drinking water, she'll be okay, right? Right? She goes back to see Dr. LaRue in a few weeks for some blood work, and that makes me a little nervous, but I know it's just another step on the path.

We're also loading up on baby information. Jessica's nightstand looks like a library, chock full of baby books and magazines. She's currently reading What to Expect When You're Expecting. Apparently, it's the bible when it comes to childbirth. Jessica also bought a Pregnancy for Dummies DVD. I think that one's for me.

Other than that, it's the same 'ol same 'ol around here, which is okay, I guess, because in about seven months, it's going to be anything but same 'ol same 'ol.
