The wife and I were kinda shocked this morning since we both were thinking girl. My son should be here in less than 2 months. Everything is looking good health wise as well.

so how is it you were "thinking" girl?
i that what doctors had said previously based on ultrasounds?
or was that gut instinct?

either way, have fun!

During the previous ultrasound we bouth thought we saw "3 lines" which is what you look for in an ultrasound to show the vagina. About 1/2 way thru Erika asked the tech if she could tell what the sex is and the tech said "Oh, you want me to try and find out?". We had thought she had known so by the time she knew, the baby was not in any position where the tech could tell.



(NOT my picture)

The wife and I both thought we saw similar "lines" when the tech was doing leg measurements but it just goes to show just how "expert" we are (not) at looking at ultrasounds. ;)

We were going with a farm theme in the room so everything has been gender neutral upto this point. Now it is time to buy some Monkey, Monster, Robot, and Skull stuff. :cool:

No, but that really is her dad and my dads names so it would work... I think I would actually go that route but I am not a huge fan of the name Bruce (except for my father in law, since he is awesome).

We are going with Desmond Alexander Montgomery.

I have some friends with the last name Lopez and whenever people ask what they are naming the kid they say "If it's a girl, Jennifer. If it's a boy we are either think George or Mario." and most people just go "Oh, those are nice names!"

XHonusWagnerX - 11-10-2011 at 10:53 AM

if you go with Desmond Alexander Montgomery then you can say "where is the D.A.M. kid" and it wont be like your swearing.

JawnDiablo - 11-10-2011 at 03:03 PM

awesome.
congrats to you both

With the last name alone, it is hard to avoid. :D

Alexander is Erika's dads middle name.

Anyone guess where the first name came from? :dork:

Congrats!!!

And I'll throw my support behind Batman Montgomery, though the first name Bruce reminds me of...

John: Queer?

Homer: Yeah, and that's another thing! I resent you people using that word. That's our word for making fun of you! We need it!! Well I'm taking back our word, and I'm taking back my son!
