Double Digits

Finally have hit the 2 digit mark. So only 30 weeks to go. That sounds like forever though, not that it should matter considering I am enjoying my sleeping time at the moment as I am still comfortable.

Not much has been going on. Got my scan booked for 12/12/08 hopefully Aaron can get time off work to come and see the bub with me if not looks like mother in law is coming for a sneak peak.

Things have been steady here the morning (afternoon) sickness is wearing thin I am just so over it not to forget the tiredness but Aaron has been great watching the kids so I can snooze. My stomach is sticking out heaps now compared to others I look very pregnant.

We went to toys r us today they have a great 50% off sale on so many things we want. I was so excited to find a bassinet for half price but they were sold out. But then I found a cradle for 50% off and that is still cheaper than the bassinet was full price so I will head back and get it this week. Also found a great change table that is a cupboard and drawers as well so I better look at finances for that but the more I think about it the more I think post xmas sales might be even better!

We have been discussing names lately and their seems to be a massive shortage in nice names. We can’t think of any girls one at all. I even looked in the baby book and we still couldn’t find just 1 we love. I am leaning towards Kayla or Kira… I KNOW!!! NOT BIBLICAL at all. But then we have 3 K Merritt’s in the house so not too sure. Aaron not so keen on more K’s but I seem to be very ‘K” focused this week.

I am pretty sure were having a boy anyway. I had the same feeling with the other 2 that I just kind of knew in my instincts. So for boys names it is easier as we both like Noah and it fits in well with the other kids names. I just don’t like the fact you cant shorten or cuten Noah… Noahy… Joey… will have to think about that one?

Middle name were still looking at but for a boy we like Charles. Charles was Aaron great grandfather and was a P.O.W his body was never found but every year Aaron marches for him the ANZAC day parade.

With the girl middle names I want to us one of Nan’s names not sure yet which one as she has 3 Maureen Bridget Helen and she gets called by all of them so I don’t even know the correct order. But Nan has been a huge influence on our lives and so this baby deserves to be named after such a wonderful woman

I know we have heaps of time but I always seem more settled when my baby has an identity. But for the time being it is called ‘bump’
