baby boy

 we are so, so excited about our baby boy
i love feeling him move all the time
we are all happy to know it is in fact a boy (no regrets not waiting)
and i am so excited to dress another baby boy
here are a few things we bought him on our babymoon
that little blue and red striped newborn number kills me
i can't wait to put it on him 
the only trouble is...we are having a super hard time thinking of a name
we've never named a boy together before
it's tricky business
if you have any suggestions, i'd love to hear them!
michael decided he wanted the baby to have a second first name as a middle name
like noah does (thomas) so we aren't using lyons
we decided instead to use the middle name christopher
after michael's identical twin that passed away as a newborn
it had been our plan for years if ever we had a baby boy, to use it as a middle name
but i guess between michael's brother using as his son's first name,
and us not having a boy for a long time we kind of put it on the back burner
but michael had kind of planned on using it most of his life so we definitely will be
 but really, if you have any ideas
of first names for this little darling
________ christopher olson
let me know!
it is taking up way too much of my thoughts lately
i love having the name settled earlier rather than later 
it's so stressful!

The only one that comes to mind right now is Eli. I think it goes well with the rest of the name. Naming kids is so hard, but I like you prefer to have it done early.

Edmond, Henry or Emmitt. Gordon..
I have a brother name Gus, but that may not go as well.

Jude. That was what we were going to name Harrison but a friend stole it first. It's just about the only other boy name I like that hasn't been taken by everyone.

My friend named her son Hobie. We all thought it was weird at first, but now I really like it.
