Don't Get Comfortable

Not long now...

Jay really wants to give our son (if we have a boy, that is) the middle name "Bean" which in gaelic means "life." What do we think of this? Bean? Honestly? Elliott Zachary Bean Legg. Um....someone has got to sell me on this if you are on Jay's side, because I really don't think so.

P.S. My husband is creative, unique and wonderful and this post does not reflect any opinion otherwise---just concern with extent of creativity in this one instance.

Baby Pool

Yes, I am obsessed with the coming of our little one and very likely will be blogging with that in mind frequently. So you can expect a recurring theme. And thanks to Christy Bloemendal (I am sorry if I butchered that spelling, Christy and James) I now have set up this awesome baby pool that actually allows you to guess the weight, gender, length, time and date of birth. Then once the baby is born and I enter in the correct information it will calculate an overall winner as well as winners for particular categories. So while I feel a bit like we are gambling over my child's entrance and existence, it is all too much fun and entertaining for me to see what you all anticipate for the little Legg's big day. The prize for the overall winner is two-fold: 1.) The comfort and pride in your sheer awesomeness and 2.) Beer and pizza party with friends (on us, of course) at your friendly neighbourhood Legg's house to celebrate the birth of baby and your immense foresight. And if you live far away then you may just have to be content with your awesomeness. So, enter in your guesses! It's going to be fun no matter how you look at it. Thanks guys!

Yuck

I hate centipedes. Saw two tonight running across my floor. That's two too many. Moelker and I believe that they are setting up a conspiracy against mankind. They are smart and wait until you are most vulnerable to make an appearance. At that point they can gain the greatest scare factor and eventually take over the world once it is in chaos. I can feel them winning.

Awesome

Jay and I have decided to hold a "The Coolest Friend Competition." The criteria for the competition are as follows:

*buy this (or any other Homestar Runner themed things) for our baby: http://homestarrunner.stores.yahoo.net/poopsmith.html

That's it.

Disclaimer: There is no such thing as "The Coolest Friend." We love you all very much and are only trying to get things we really like for our baby that our parents will not buy for us. We thought this guise was a very clever approach to achieving our aims. You will still be incredibly cool whether or not you buy things for our baby. However, our baby may grow up to be cooler if you do.
