For the first time Mike and I have agreed on a name and in record time! Took all of 48 hours, and we have hardly seen each other or talked in it so this is really quick!
I had a friend send me a list of a cajillion names yesterday, all ending in 'n' and all cultures. It was a lot of hard work and was so fun to go through them. I thought about posting them, but I don't think they would all fit on one page, it was that many!
The name Mike and I have agreed on is on her list as well ;-)
I went to Way 2 Play Cafe, a indoor place for children and a cafe for moms and dads, plus wireless connection ;-), yesterday and met our good friends Kathleen, John, and baby Mark there. We haven't been yet and it was pretty fun. Boy did it get packed and fast though! I think once the newness wears off it's going to be great to pop into every once and awhile.
Now before we had left Mike and I discussed this name and he was like "I really like it, it's on my list" NEVER has he ever said that to me. So while we were at the Cafe I had Teagan in the ball pit and this little girl probably no more than two came over to play as well. She was so cute and sweet. Well her mom starts calling her name. IT'S the name we had been discussing!! (I didn't tell you this Kathleen) I immediately took it as a sign instead of normally being like "awe man!"
Because I know regardless of how it's pronounced we would have a confusing spelling LOL.
And now that he's agreed so quickly, I'm like, uh do I really want this name for her??? I'm so used to the battle and calling the child by the name picked and then him warming up 2 months later ;-) We are really at a disadvantage though because there are very very few 'n' ending Irish names and most of them I really don't like. Those I do like are already taken by close friends and family members.
I'm not sure I want to share the name yet ;-) We even are pretty close on a middle name and I find myself just looking at Mike "who are you and where is my husband" He agreed on it as well, and I said that I'm not so sure anymore!! So funny!
