The interesting thing that comes along with expecting a new baby and having children old enough to understand that there will be a new baby around, is the idea of what the new baby will be called.
Megan, of course, would LOVE a sister. Daily she tells us girl names she likes. Today she thought "Samantha" was a great name. Then we asked her what her favourite boy's name would be. "Carlos". Somehow I don't think the baby will be Hispanic.
Austen had his own thoughts too. "Caillou" for a boy (you know, in case he's French) and "Rosie" for a girl. Because that's his realm of understanding. Treehouse TV shows.
Mason just shakes his head the entire time and screams NO!.
I think we might have a small situation on our hands. I can just see it now. Megan will be dressing up the baby in a dress whether it's a boy or a girl, speaking Spanish (aka "Dora") ("Vamanos, Let's Go!)", Austen will be talking French to the babe, and Mason just runs around screaming "NO". I think our troops will be noisy, but they'll love the new baby to bits. It's going to be interesting with four kids, age 6 and under!
