Chapman Family: Getting closer to a name!

It's almost 1:00am and this pregnancy has made me more lose way more sleep than my pregnancy with Isaac. Maybe it's a sign that I'll get more sleep once she's born than I did with Isaac. Ha-probably not! Oh well, maybe I'll get to visit with Santa when he stops by...

Just thought I'd update everyone on our baby-naming process. I think we now have it narrowed down to two-Lauren and Leah. Middle name would be Lynn (my middle name) for either. Jake is somewhat compromising on this because he's not totally in love with either name, but he is now really set on her initials being LLC (Limited Liability Corporation). Why? Because Isaac's middle name is Nathaniel so his initials are INC. I keep reminding Jake that we didn't choose Isaac's name because of the initials it formed, it was just a conincidence, but he seems to believe otherwise. By the way, I'm not sure why he wanted an "H" name a few months ago? Personally, I am not in love with the middle name Lynn for either of those names, but I guess if I get to have my way on the first name, letting Jake use Lynn for the middle name won't be so bad. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything at all against my middle name and I really like it with other names, but we'll see what ends up happening-7 weeks and counting! I asked Jake if we were going to have to name the rest of our kids in a way that their initials would form business related acronyms and he said yes. I doubt that there are really any more-certainly not 3 or 4 more that we could use. Hopefully not anyways. It's really a rather ridiculous method for naming one's child, don't you think? Having written all of this, don't be surprised to read later on that we've chosen a totally different name. Jake seems to be changing his mind quite often about this topic. Perhaps I should just keep my mouth shut about the whole thing and then when she's born we'll just have to choose either Lauren or Leah because those were the last two names we discussed. Might work, right? I'll keep you all posted....

And because a post is always better with pictures, here are a few from Christmas Eve...
