I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. We went to Arizona to see the Murdocks and my friends and had a great time. Wyatt finally got a hair cut, don't be alarmed when you look at the pics, we really did cut some off even though it is still longer than most women's hair! He was not happy to say the least to get it cut and we had to bribe him with a toy dump truck that made noise, a sucker, and the promise to go home and paint rocks! Overall he did pretty well, but it is definately not his favorite thing in the world. He looks a little less, well, homeless now. While we were back in AZ we took pictures by the LOVE sign in the park (which I have posted for your viewing pleasure). You all will be getting them as Christmas cards I have decided. I thought they turned out adorable.
On the baby front all is well. I am feeling better than I have the entire pregnancy and not as tired or generally crabby. I even managed to stay up till about 1:30 am on Saturday for some, uh, festivities with the girlfriends. I am almost 27 weeks which means next week I will offically be 7 months. That totally blows my mind. With the birth quickly approaching we have been searching for a name with more ferver than before. Brett loves the name Jackson, and we adore his cousin with the same name. However, his name is Jackson Murdock Cue and another Jackson Murdock seems too close, so we are thinking of going with the alternate spelling Jaxson and calling him Jax for short. I feel very Angelina Jolie for this (she has a son name Pax) and slightly uncomfortable because alternative spellings creep me out on sheer principle. I feel like I am lying by creating my own interpretation on a classic, and that my friend, is a slippery slope. First Jaxson and then the next thing you know I will have a girl named KLOEY. Ick. For now we are trying the name on for size and so far I think it is pretty adorable and very manly at the same time. We don't really have a middle name picked out, but we are leaning toward, get this... McQueen. Mainly because we have to watch Cars nine hundred times a week and the main character's name is Lighting McQueen. The way Wyatt says it is hilarious. "Lightinin-AQueen!" as in "Look Mama, Look Mama, Lightinin-AQueen is fast. He winnin' da race. He has red wheeeels!!!!" We asked Wyatt if he would like to have a brother named Jaxson and he excited said, "Ya, I like Jaxson, my bruda!" Then we asked if he would like to have a brother named "Jaxson McQueen" to which he quickly shouted "No, no, Jaxson AQueen. I AQueen. I da fastest!" Which just makes me want to name him Jaxson McQueen even more! Jaxson McQueen Murdock written out looks a little long though. Well, we will see. That is all for now. I will post more pictures soon.
