Christmas Gift Exchange 2011

My family has a gift exchange every Christmas. We always make that "don't say who you got" promise but it never fails that within ten minutes, not only do we know who is giving a present to who but we already told them what we want for Christmas. Ha! After decades of this tradition we still make that promise then quickly break it. Since we saw my sisters this weekend, we decided to draw names for the gift exchange. They decided to include our son. I suggested otherwise because of the emotional roller coaster I have been riding but they reminded me that although we don't know how much longer the wait will be, he IS on his way. (They also promised to cry or laugh with me when I open his present.)

These past few months, Rob and I have been thinking and talking about what we should name our son. We have narrowed it down to a few names but have not been able to settle on one. For the gift exchange a name was needed and both Rob and I said the same name. At the time we did not realize that we had just, possibly made a decision on a name. It is such a long wait that I don't want to tell EVERYONE what the name we chose is yet because we want to be 500% sure about it (right now we are at 382%). For now, we will call him baby B :).
