First of all, thanks for all the fun and interesting baby name suggestions. Chip and I and all the kids are having fun tossing out suggestions nearly every day. I brought up Vern, Lyle and Arnold one evening and nobody jumped at any of them. I guess I wasn't all that surprised. I do think there is quite the trend of classic/old-fashioned names on the rise though. I guess it's just certain names though. I have yet to see Dwayne or Floyd on the popular name list- my dad {Floyd} would probably be happy to see his name grow in popularity. But it will likely be at least a few years from now. =)In other family news, we enjoyed a long, extended spring break vacation from school and routine last week. It seemed to fly by very quickly even though we didn't travel anywhere or do anything too exciting. Having long, leisure mornings and relaxed bedtime schedules was enough of a treat, if you ask me. I did "force" the girls into short, individual photo shoots one bright, sunny afternoon. I realized I don't take near as many photos as I used to. I need to get back on track and start snapping pictures- even if it is just routine, ordinary activity.
My next big challenge will be talking the boys into their photoshoots. They really don't think it's as much fun as the girls do. And so goes the long list of differences in genders!

I snorted when I saw Dwayne and Floyd. My brother-in-law's name is Floyd Wayne. And no, no one wants to be named after him!
you mentioned having the girls name sorted out, care to share?
For a girl I was fairly set on Willow Cait. And Chip wasn't throwing it out- so that was our top pick. We're never 100% sure until we actually sign the birth certificate though. =)
Sooo sweet!!!!! Nothing like some good girl time:)
my husband's co-worker just had a son and htey named him vernon james. i thought vernon was pretty old school.
