We have picked out Names

So, since we are planning to not find out the gender, we already had our discussion on names. We agreed on a boys name in one night: Jackson Kai McNeil. It took three nights to compromise on a girls name: Gabrielle Elisabeth McNeil.

It seems as though the first thing everyone does it try to figure out nicknames. Why is that? I mean, we chose names that have a variety of options for nicknames...but what's wrong with actually calling someone by their name? There are plenty of people (me for example...my husband for example) who actually go by their given name...is it really such a stretch to think that my children could actually be called Jackson and Gabrielle?

Deather's Ultrasound Pic

This is our first ultrasound where we could actually see the baby. They estimated that Deather was 13 weeks 6 days at this time. Based on that measurement, we have a due date of April 10th. Our next ultrasound is November 21st, where they will be able to measure everything and see much more! We are hoping to not find out the gender until birth, so as long as Deather doesn't get into awkward, obvious positions, we should be good to go:)
