Noodle

Baby's in his 25th week now. Since he's already able to hear, we've been chatting him up quite a bit.

Tonight, just before Mae's bedtime, we got to talking with the little guy. Since we're still undecided on his name, Mae suggested that we run some names and see which one Baby responds to. He'd already begun kicking when we started talking, so we knew he was wide awake - he usually is at midnight! Nocturnal, just like Daddy! :)

"Hey there, Baby Marcus!" No respond. "Baby Dylan..." Nothing. "Baby Aidan". "Baby Julian". Not a twitch. We even tried to fake a few. "Hey, Baby William" and still nothing. After a few more, we decided that maybe Baby just wants to be nameless. And we left it at that. Perhaps, he'd fallen asleep.

As I tucked Mae in, I asked if she'd like some noodles for breakfast and she answered with a sharp, "Ow!" Baby kicked. I smiled at Mae knowingly. "Baby Noodle!" Baby kicked again. We tried again, "Hey Noodle," and Baby kicked again. Heh! Looks like Baby's picked his name.

Hehehh. Dopey kid. :)

    But of course, annu. He'll get his fair share of embarassing stories when he's grown up. It's a parent's privilege to embarass his kid! :lol:
