Countown has begun!

Just so everyone knows I have three weeks left until the big day. At least, according to my calculations. The ultrasound said 4 more weeks, but I am sticking with my own calculations. Oh, and we also decided on a name. Soran Dawn Thompson. It takes everyone about three times asking, "Say it again" before they say, "Oh." So I don't think it's going to be very popular, but we like it. My family isn't going to like it because it doesn't start with an A, but who knew we were going to be picking out so many girl names? Scott wanted to name her after ancestry, and his great-grandfather was named Soren. That was the closest he could get to getting a boy. We'll let you know when anything happens.

Two things:
1. Ya, we are going to be angry it does not start with an A. Sorry, but for the sake of tradition we must.
2. Soran? That is so close to Soren that I will now think of your daughter as the reincarnation of Soren Kierkegaard.

Awesome sauce.

I think it's perfectly okay that it doesn't start with A. There are very few normal A names left anyway, and Rich and I would be left picking something like Absalom. :-)

Soran? How do you pronounce it? So' rahn? Sorahn? SorAnn? Help a gal out.

I too think of Kierkegaard, who quite possibly is my favorite existentialist philosopher.
