Congrats!
Have you thought about baby names yet or is it too early? _________________ "www.peakoil.com is the Myspace of the Apocalypse." |

I'm thinking Marion would be nice.
Aside from the obvious, the baby name site said it's derived from Mary:
It is of Latin origin, and its meaning is "star of the sea". Saint Jerome associated the Virgin's name with the Latin phrase "stella maris". Other possible meanings are (Hebrew) "wished-for child; rebellion; sea of bitterness".
All right, enough of this clucking. _________________ Make a plan and work it: |

And congrats on everything!
I had good friend in college who kind of didn't know what to think or
do when it turned out his girlfriend was pregnant. Man was his
head spinning, but now they are raising their third kid. It's a big
thing. And just think of how special it will be teaching this child all
the things you know! This is a really special time.
Some other ideas for middle names:
Alucard, Aaron, Noraa

Ha!

New editions! or is that additions? or both?  _________________ "Don't ever become a pessimist... a pessimist is correct oftener than an optimist, but an optimist has more fun, and neither can stop the march of events."

Wasn't John Wayne's real first name Marion?

I think King as a middle name would be a nice tribute.  _________________ "I was born in a deep forest

How nice. I've been through this a few times and can share in your excitement.
Vladimir is out, huh? Well, ... how about Ernesto? Ernesto King has a nice ring to it, don't you think?  _________________ Everything is Impermanent. Shakyamuni Buddha |
