Babies on the brain

[dcrachel.livejournal.com]

I just found out I'm preggers! And though it is too early to tell real people, I somehow feel fine posting it to a bunch of strangers! I never said I was rational... On top of my own pregnancy, two of my good friends from high school are pregnant and my sister-in-law just announced she is pregnant. It's like the year of a million babies.

So my husband and I have our favorites, but recently we've added a new one. It's one of those names that you are just throwing around, it comes out almost as a joke. You laugh about how silly it is, but then...it starts to grow on you. It's one of those names you don't think you could really use, but you still really like it.

The name is Wakefield.

Just putting it out there. For what it's worth, the Chinese lunar calendar says I'll be having a girl. I'm sure that's completely accurate. :)

I think it's interesting. For a boy, though, not for a girl.

(FWIW, I read several Sweet Valley books as a kid and didn't make the association until I saw others make it.)
