So if you haven't deduced yet, my blog title is misleading (read: A Big Fat Lie). I did not have a baby. In order for the title to be true I would have had to wait until April to post again.
See what I did there?
So how you doing? How has the fall treated you? Yeah, who are we kidding? I'm way too ego-centric to care about anyone but me so let's talk about that. The past three months have been a time of growth for me. Instead of spending the fall writing about myself, I have spent them getting to know me better. I have learned that I was exceptionally anti-social in my first trimester even to the point that I allegedly blew Jessica off on the phone one day. I repeat, allegedly; I have no recollection of this incident.
I will shamefully admit that I did blow off this blog. If you are upset with me, take comfort in knowing that I got what was coming to me. I'm only half-way through my pregnancy and my MIL already referred to me as "huge". Apparently that time of growth I was referring to was literal.
Finally, I have discovered that I am a name snob. I shoot down every name that other people suggest for one reason or another. So not only is my future child nameless, she's not even close to getting a name. If you think you can come up with a name better than "Baby" for my unborn daughter that'd be super.
For anyone who feels like they couldn't possibly name a child that they don't know, I'll recap for you: Since becoming pregnant with her I have exhibited anti-social behaviors. I have become thoughtless to the feelings of others, and I will most likely make fun of any name that you suggest. Essentially I am gestating a Mean Girl.
She might be a jerk, but at least she'll have great legs and a good taste in shoes.

You have become a pain in the behind over the name situation. We should just go with whatever name I decide. I mean really, I AM THE FATHER!. Well good to have the blog back.
Matthias

i think we need a "huge" picture post :)
names...
how about
calla ann
it's the name i wanted to use but we are d o n e
you can shoot it down if you like--i understand the hormones :)
My heart was so broken by that one time you had stuff you had to do rather than sit around on your butt and entertain me. *sniff*
That said, today I offer you these two names for your consideration: Isabelle & Sophia. Do with them as you will.
Congratulations! Laughing my ass off at your post. Name baby after your m-i-l!
Aah, so good to see your new post (I was getting tired of seeing those baseball caps everyday ;). Congratulations! We have the stroller/carseat from Jess for you. Maybe we can bring it up to you one weekend (so I can see your new house, hint, hint). We were picking names for Aaron on the way to the hospital. Dan's was God-sent (I'm thinking "blog subject" here.) Names? Love the Sophia suggestion. Based on your experience -- I don't know -- Tempest? lol
You know you're just opening yourself up to getting lots of baby name suggestions... I'm thinking - Dione?
I watched a Buffalo Bills game last Sunday. Or at least part of it. But I didn't know who to drool over. I felt lost without Trent. If I had had your cell number I would have texted you for a suggestion.
It's a girl? How fun! Yeah, Dione has a nice ring to it.
WOOHOO! Congratulations.
I'm reading and then I'm like "Wait. What month is it? *counts fingers*"
We're very excited for you over here. (And when I say we, I mean me and my 3 year old and I'm certain everyone else to whom I announce your news today.)
If you want name suggestions. Do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT even think of SARAH. Especially not SARAH MICHELLE. Nope. Don't name her that.
congrats! Glad you're social again. : )
