A name of sorts

It took us three days to name the baby.

I love his name. I love saying it. I love hearing it. I love seeing it written on a baby gift or his birth certificate or on a piece of mail.

So it kills me that I don't believe in using my children's real names on the blog. I'm not always successful in keeping their identities off the internet {pointedly looking at you, Papa Dad}, but I try.

The baby shares a first initial with another member of our family, which makes the question of what to call him here even more difficult. I think I've settled with using his middle initial, which is R.

Maybe someday I'll invest the time and invent a few pseudonyms. For now, we have Little Miss C , E man, big L and baby R.

What a houseful. Mouthful. :)

What a handsome little man! Congrats!!

...My dad is always the one to blow it, too--he uses our real names on my blog all the time, bless his heart.
