The Name Game.....




Since the expected elaboration of the gender for our new arrival, we have decided to kick start "Operation Baby Bonanza". I have to admit, this is probably one of the most exhilarating expeditions that our family has ever encountered. We have began looking at nursery decor options, child safety devices, maternity apparel (mama's get'n big), crib designs, must have registry items, Halloween customs for a baby boy (he will be here just in time), the list really does linger on and on. But the one thing that plagues us day in and day out is.......What shall we call him? After all we will be the naming the handsomest baby boy just north of I-70, that is 17w 6d old today (they grow up so fast).

As a new mother/father you want to name your child a name that he will represent with pride. You fear that if you slip up and call him something controversially easy for his classmate to make fun of him, our baby boy may be tarnished for all of his childhood/adolescence years.

We were focusing on a name were if he wants to be a next generation farmer like his daddy, the name would blend in well. Yet if he wants to be a striving Politician like his grandfather (CRJ), his name would prove powerful. Numerous factors must be taken into consideration in order for this regime to authenticate a successful venture. The pressure is evident!

Once we narrow down our vast margin of two names, the verdict will be announced.

Sincerely,
Farming Fabulously
