I had another ultrasound last night which confirmed we are definitely having another boy. I am excited, the kids are thrilled, and I am looking for the perfect name for my little peanut.
I don't think I have formally announced that I am pregnant, due August 3rd. Since our lease is up in July and we do not know if Dirk will find another job here or if we will have to move elsewhere, I am planning to go to my mom's in July and stay until after the baby is born.
Times like this, I need theme music! I have never been an especially musical person, but I was noticing at Sea World that music has special powers. Stay with me on this one. . . We were watching the Shamu show for about the millionth time; we never tire of those loveable killer whales. And the whales were jumping and splashing and the music was loud and cheesy and I nearly cried, I am ashamed to admit, for about the millionth time.
If I had some good theme music, this uncertain time of our lives would seem like one of those inspirational movies . . . think Rudy, The Hoosiers, etc. You get my drift. Everyone would be rooting for us and we would consider each disappointment as a new reason to get up in the morning and fight like killer whales to save the day. Then, when we conquered, the fans would cry and cheer and buy souvenir cups and popcorn buckets with our cartoon likenesses.
So, now I am collecting suggestions for theme music and boy names.

Congratulations! I had heard through the grapevine that you were pregnant but didn't know when you were due and all that. That's a good day to be born, Aug. 3rd is my birthday! Hope everything is going well with the pg and good luck with the job hunt!
Wow! Pregnant, congrats! I am so thrilled for you. Sorry to hear about the job loss. I will definitely keep you in our prayers. And good luck with the pregnancy, wait, I remember you are one of the lucky few that just LOVES being pregnant. I hope this one is the same for you too.
Wow! That is a huge congrats!
I totally know what you mean about that stupid shamu music. It makes me all verklempt even though I know that they are totally manipulating me. But you deserve a magnificent fight song of your own. I'll contemplate...
I love the idea of a theme song! I think most of our day to day moments could be improved by theme music.
Congrats on the pregnancy.
I had three boy names picked out that I was unable to use, they were Jaxon, Ethan, and Trek. I recommend the Rocky theme, not the eye of the tiger, but the training sequence music, I think it's called Gotta Fly Now, I could be wrong. Congrats on the good things in your life.
Boy names: Killer (in the loving whale way), or Shamu? How about Rocky for your theme song? Who isn't inspired by that music?
