I exploded...27 weeks

So I think it's obvious that I'm pregnant now. Weird how things can grow so fast...relatively speaking. One day I look in the mirror and I have a big belly. I couldn't tell which pics showed it more accurately so you get a couple. They're all pretty much the same though...

How important is the meaning of a name when choosing one?
Should it affect whether or your final decision is what to choose? and if so, how much?

I never really cared too much about what my name meant, but it means "companion" and I don't really mind being one of those.

Say for example a name you like ends up meaning "one who lives in a swamp."

Should that be enough to dissuade you from using it?

Just wondering...

21 Weeks

Thought I'd add a few pictures to help answer the question of if I look pregnant yet. My answer is usually sorta, sometimes, in certain articles of clothing. I'm trying to show if for you here as much as I can while still standing normal. This was the best I could do for now. Enjoy.

Hey guess what...

Yup, it's for sure. We were scheduled to find out next week, but luckily (but not really) I've been having some major pains that decided to stick around in my back for a week, so we got to get it done earlier. I'm at 20 weeks so it was about time anyway.

So,they couldn't figure out what's stabbing me, but at least we know what we're having now. :)

I always see cute stuff but I couldn't ever get anything...now I can!
Yay.

Still working on coming up with boy names we like...but we will succeed!
