The boy gets a name....

As many of you already know....we have chosen a name for little boy Tudor. He will be called James Strickland Tudor. We had this name picked out before we even knew what Claire was so it was a pretty easy decision. James is after my grandfather, Pop, and Strickland...well that is obvious! We are so excited about this little one and cannot wait to meet him. I just know this name will serve him well. My Pop is the most amazing man on this Earth and if we can raise a little boy to be half the man he is....we will consider that a job well done!

I promise to catch up on posts soon. I thought I would this weekend while my family was here helping out, but we worked and I think the "nesting" is starting to kick in! I cannot get organized enough. With James on the way and the thought of a long winter indoors with a 2 year old and newborn......my list keeps growing! We did get Claire's room started and after the visit during her birthday weekend, I really think all I will have left to do is wash and get out all old baby gear. We are moving her into a "big girl" room.....don't let the name fool you, we will still keep her in a crib, but it will be a new room with new furniture and all. Since we did the nursery in all neutral fabrics we will add a little blue here and there and James will be ready to go! Sweet boy! I have a sonogram tomorrow and hope to talk to the doctor next week about the surgery date. I would like to have some idea of when we will do it....not sure how the whole scheduled date works, but it is looking so attractive right now. I will (hopefully) get to have all my bases covered and Claire will be well taken care of!......and spoiled rotten!

Promise to post pictures soon....I think I have the whole summer to catch up on!!! Yikes!
