A Bun in the Oven

Ok, so not a visually stunning layout or post, but here it is. We are finally having a baby. Some of you know that already. Highlights of the pregnancy so far have been:

1. Cameron seeing the ultrasound today and saying it was the coolest thing he's ever seen.
2. When the baby was the size of a blueberry
3. When I got to throw up in an airplane bathroom (twice)
4. When my baby and I stood on the continental divide in Colorado
5. When my baby was the size of a small prune
6. When I got to go to Girl's camp just after finding out I was preggo
7. When I realized I haven't gained any weight yet because of "losing" food)
8. When the baby was the size of a peach

Here's the other issue. Since the baby is due on Valentine's day and Arizona's birthday, what should I name him /her?

Arizona Valentine Lee?

Do you think if it's a boy he'll get beat up?

If anyone has any cool ideas, let me know.

Being a mom is amazing!
When did you find out?

Cassie Lee said...

I found out on June 13th. I think this has been the longest 6 weeks of my life waiting for the "scary" part to be over. I'm still sick though.

Cass, how bout Valentino Zona? Or Love Lee--get it--Lovely? Hey it was good enough for Love Hewitt. (I mean Jennifer Love Hewitt--if you've seen the E! bio on her, you know her real name is Love.)

You know, you could always go with William or Taft since he was the president that granted statehood, but it wouldn't work very well for a girl.
For girls you could do Ruby (so cute...I LOVE this name. Plus it would work better with Lee than Howe so you can have it if you want), Valentyn, Cara (means Beloved in Italian), or even Scarlet.
The list could go on and on. I'm so excited for you guys. The baby is going to be so lucky to have you as parents.

Very fun! Are you starting to feel any better? I love having a barf buddy. You feel my pain. I am finally starting to feel a lil' better. That is cute that your baby is due on Valentine's day. Good luck with names that is what we're doin' right now. Hard, fun task.

OH my so CoOl!!! I am so happy for you and I love the name. If it is a boy I think the name Arizona is awsome. You can call him AZ. I love it!
So excited for you and sorry about the loss of food. That is not fun. Take care of yourself. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

yeah for you! ok on a serious note though, valentine is actually a family name and had my sister been born like 4 days later (in feb instead of jan) my mom was going to name my her valentine rucker. i'm so glad i have a shandi instead. oh but you could name it after something that is in arizona like mogillon or navapache! congrats!

YAY!!! Congrats Cassie! I am so happy for you! You can check out my prego blog at www.michellemasiaspregnancy.blogspot.com It's just my little journal, but it may provide you with some insight.

As far as being sick goes, I hope that passes soon! It's no fun! I've been sick all nine months, but I think that's pretty rare.

We heard from your mom the other day!! Congrats. Todd and I are so excited for you. However, we never suggest names, only take credit after the naming is done for having that same name picked out for you all along!!

Congrats Cassie, I had no idea that you were expecting. I was pregnant with twins due Feb. 10th but we lost them. Its ok, because we are currently trying again so hopefully this time things will go better. Hows teaching and being pregnant? I know its hard having to get up and go to work and teach when all you want to do is lay on the couch and throwup. Good luck with everything, and again congrats!!! Its all worth it in the end

Congats Cass! I am soo excited for you and Cameron! I think the name should be something to do with citrus! Hmmmm...that is the oldest inside joke we have and I have no idea where it came from. Anyways can't wait to find out if you're having a boy or girl!
