And the Baby is a...

...boy or a girl. It's definitely one or the other.

So we don't know the gender of the baby - this one had his/her legs crossed and wasn't budging or cooperating. Figures. Four years ago Wilson used his umbilical cord to block any view. The doctor says they can be stubborn - yes, they can. And they can stay that way well into preschool. We weren't disappointed. We knew what our firstborn did and since these two share the same genetic pool, well, we knew what to expect today. Chris says it's no wonder - he says with my dad and my grandpa he didn't expect anything less. Ha Ha.

Well, since we can't tell you what the baby is, we will tell you who the baby is. The first name is Reagan. It will work either way. We learned our lesson last time when our finalist names were Wilson and Anna Catherine. We had to refer to Wilson as "it" until he was born. Now we can refer to Reagan as "Reagan", and not as "it". Of course, Peanut still works, but Reagan doesn't really look much like a peanut anymore.

Reagan was a name we both loved four years ago, but in the end we decided to do family names for our first born. I have a dear friend named Regan - we added the "a" so both kids are presidents - one democrat and one republican so we are fair and balanced here. If anyone had ever paid attention to our XBOX games - the NCAA football game where Chris created a super athlete quarterback named Wilson Crouch for the Baylor team was replaced upon his graduation by quarterback Reagan Crouch. But then, our Reagan could be a boy or a girl...

Soon Chris will put more pictures and try to put some of the video on the blog sometime this weekend. Reagan looks healthy and we are still on target for our due date in February. The due date is the one day the baby absolutely will NOT arrive on. Our's is February 11, 2006 for Reagan to not arrive on. :)
