It's official...
We are having another boy!
Look at that cute little guy!
I had been crossing my fingers and thinking pink, since we already have a boy... but I'm so excited that my little man is going to have a baby brother! I guess then I won't have a little man anymore, but little men. Maybe I need a new nickname.
Already I'm starting to map out in my head what I want to do with the nursery... although since we only have a 2 bedroom place, that means Matthew and the littlest Burnsy will be sharing a room. I keep hearing people say how convenient it is because I don't have to change the theme or decor. Riiight... like I'm going to pass up an excuse to redecorate. Since I've become more than slightly addicted to Pinterest (the fact that they came out with an iPhone app is both a blessing and a curse), I have of course been pinning nursery ideas. Here are a few of my favorites, although in terms of theme I'm thinking maybe animals or the ABC's - both favorites of Matthew's.
Any ideas, suggestions?
Maybe I should be putting more effort into what little Burnsy's name will be rather than what his bedroom will look like... except I have absolutely no idea what to do about a name. None. The two names we liked the best before - Matthew & Thomas - ended up as Matthew Thomas Burns. Any other names we've ever talking about using... they suddenly just don't feel like they fit this little guy. I really need to start going through that baby name book, we may have 4 months left but 4 months goes by awfully fast in this house! Matthew has been quite helpful - first his name was going to be "Buzz Cake Burns", then it was "Lightening McQueen Burns" (shocker), and then this afternoon he decided on "Silly Pants Burns" but then quickly changed his mind and said that "Matthew Burns" was a good name. I told him that was taken, but he doesn't seem to mind. Apparently in this one thing he is willing to share.
Well, we will figure something out eventually... possibly without Matthew's input.
:) I can't wait for little Lightning to get here!
ReplyDeleteI love those sail boats - and those boxy lights!! And personally I'm a Buzz Cake Fan personally;) Although we could all just call him Lightening as a nickname!!
ReplyDeleteI think Matthew is on to something...didn't George Foreman name all his boys George? Too funny and he is already a doll!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!!! Such a special moment!
ReplyDeleteI'm also pregnant (EDD Nov. 27th) and my baby boy's name is Matthew!!! :-)
Nice to meet you, btw! :-)

Given your family's love of all things Lord of the Rings, I'm thinking Legolas, Samwise (Sam for short), or Aragon. Bilbo Burns also has a nice ring (pun intended)!
