Hi everybody!  It’s me, the Woodling.  I haven’t written in a while because nothing exciting has been going on.  I have been hanging out with Mom and developing just like I should.  We go to the doctor on Wednesday for a check up and I’ll be sure to report back with any news.

Mom has been sick for a few days.  Dad caught a little cold and was fine in day or two.  But then Mom got it and has been feeling awful and coughing all night.  That always happens – Dad gets the sniffles and Mom bears the brunt of it.  It’s a little worse now because I need a lot of her resources and energy that would usually be used to fight the virus.  The three of us were going to buy my nursery furniture today and see South Pacific on Broadway tonight but Mom and I are going to stay home.  She says it isn’t fair.  Sorry, Mom.  I’ll be sure to tell all of you about my sweet crib once Mom and Dad place the order.

I am starting to make Mom’s belly come out a little bit!  You wouldn’t know it if you didn’t know Mom was pregnant, but all of you may be able to tell.  Dad can tell and he’s very excited.  He wanted to take a picture of Mom for this post but she said no.  Dad asked again and Mom said that one is not supposed to take photos of someone who is sick and doesn’t feel pretty. Then Dad tried one more time and said that Mom always looks pretty but she didn’t buy it so you’ll have to wait a bit to see how my Mom looks.

Mom and Dad have been doing a lot of thinking about what name I am going to have.  I’m most likely going to have it for life, so it’s a big decision!  If I’m a girl, I am going to be named Naomi.  All three of us think that Naomi Eyre Wood is a beautiful name.  Plus, Naomi was Mom’s grandmother’s name so that makes it extra special.

They haven’t picked out a name for me if I’m a boy, but Ethan, Nathan and Derek are the three contenders so far.  I may get one of those names or it may be something completely different.  You never know with Mom and Dad…
