What's the Baby Going to Be?

I thought it would be fun to get everyone's opinion on what you think we're going to have: a boy or a girl. We have actually decided that we are going to find out this time around. We don't have the appointment scheduled just yet but I think it will be sometime in July. The poll is at the top right of the blog (so if you get this via email or Google reader you will actually have to go to the blog to vote).

What's in a Name?

We have decided on a boy's name and a girl's name... finally, but we're not going to say what they are just yet. I thought that it would be fun to do a poll and see what you think we picked. I've created 2 polls, here on my blog, and you can pick multiple names, because we did, and see if you can guess what we're thinking about naming the baby. The polls are our actual list that we made our final decision from and the names that we've chosen are on the lists.

Some names that didn't make the final cut are:
Adelaide
Clover
Fitzroy
Galen
Hazel
Keegan
Lily
Reagan
Skyler
Tobias

I'm Still Pregnant

Yet another doctor's appointment again today. I am still less than a centimeter dilated, but he did mention 30%, which I am assuming means effacement. So I am making progress, just slow progress. Perhaps I will be one of the 4% of women annually that actually gives birth on their due date. We have been planning and preparing for a natural birth experience, so we want this thing to start on it's own. But we're really hoping that the baby will come before the end of this year so we can get our tax deduction this year. :) Nobody really knows when the little one will decide to come, but it's fun to try and figure it out. When do you think our baby will show its face? I technically still have 12 days left until I'm due.

Proposition 102 - Results So Far

I thought that I would share that it looks like Arizona's Proposition 102 and California's Proposition 8 are both PASSING!!!

Proposition 102: One Man, One Woman, That's Marriage

Today I decided that I would put up signs in our front window advertising "Yes to Marriage". So I did and when I went outside to take pictures of our window I'm pretty sure that I heard a Spanish commercial for Proposition 102 while I was out there. :) I thought it was pretty appropriate timing considering why I went outside.

I don't know if anyone will actually be able to read them from the street since I printed them out from my printer. I also requested a proper yard sign to put up, we'll have to wait and see when that gets here.

I really like how simple the amendment is just 20 words: “Only a union of one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in this state.” There is nothing extra thrown in and no long winded technical double speak to make you question what am I really voting on here?

So I've got 2 Spanish signs and 4 English signs.

Look What Happened in Massachusetts!!!!

My mom sent me the link to this video. Don't let what happened in Massachusetts happen in your state! Vote to keep marriage between 1 man and 1 woman.
