So unfortunately due to crazy hormones I keep having dreams in the middle of the night that are very crazy and at the same time very real to me. On one occasion mid december I was falling asleep as Dave was flipping through the channels on our TV and he came across the clamation Christmas Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer Special. I fall asleep.
Some background information on the dream is that the original decendant of Dave's family from Switzerland was named Rudolph Frederick. I dreamed that we MUST name our baby Rudolph and that we would call him Rudy for short. Not only is it a family name but for those of you who know my husband it would fullfill all sorts of life dreams about a kid who is five foot seven walking on to a college football team. At least in my crazy dream filled sleep this all made perfect sense.
When I awoke Dave at 4:00 am to explain my new revalation and its perfection for our child..... Dave was less than thrilled. However, as we have found on our family vacation to Mexico it has a pretty good ring to it and the nickname Rudy seems to have stuck :) :). Our rules are that it will be an in-vitro name only for the poor kids sake.
Who has time for baby books? This is my poor attempt to keep track of the happenings of our life as our family grows, with a few of my thoughts seasoned in along the way.

See if I had read this first, I would have understood the Rudy thing from the Christmas post!
