the Naming Game

Over the last several months, even when I FIRST revealed I was "with child," I've received many inquiries as to what the name of my "bundle of joy" would be. I never knew what to respond to these types of questions ... I always felt that naming a kid would be so much fun! AND SO easy! However, I just want to let everyone know ... this is probably one of THE biggest things I will ever do in life - besides give birth. After all, a person's name is what defines them ... right? Surely when you meet someone with the name Eclectic, you expect them to be so ... correct? Well, EVERYONE ... PLEASE give us time. We have NO freaking clue what name we want to stick this kid with for the REST of her life. Of course, I, like every other girl I know have agonized over this very thing for years and came up with a few we thought we'd "love" to name our child ... but NEWSFLASH: When you're actually pregnant ... it dawns on you that you probably don't really wanna name your kid after a water bottle, Dasani or a fabric, Diesheeki (LOL, the horror!) Right now until some mystical day, she will be ... the Kid, or J.J. as we still fondly refer to her.

AND if my good buddy Michael S. ever reads this ... PLEASE ... STOP calling the Kid, Shenequa and She-nee-nee, it's not very polite to get her used to a name i have NO intentions of calling her (haha).

That is ALL, thanks! AND hey, we don't mind your many inputs on what the name of our ONLY First-born daughter will be (unless of course i've asked for your input) ... but keep in mind, i can tell you FOR SURE, we probably won't be choosing your choice. But thanks, all are welcome! :-)
