"Gum." Everyone loves gum. It's a fact. It's a breath of fresh air (or at least a breath freshener!) much like young Gum will be to everyone he or she encounters. Gum will be multi-faceted, possessing various skills and abilities, much like gum comes in different flavors and tapes. Like Bubble Tape, Gum will be "long on fun", and like Big League Chew, Gum will be a fun and playful alternative to chewing tobacco.
Due to the fact that Melissa loves Southern names like Peyton and Cade, we will likely refer to Gum as "Gum-bo." I am not as big of a fan as Southern names (i.e. names that you would likely hear in Memphis, Dallas, etc.) as Melissa is so by calling our child Gum-bo we would reach a lovely and palatable compromise. Melissa and I both enjoyed our time in New Orleans last year and this nickname would be a special homage to the time we spent there and the people that we met.
If you are looking for a cheap laugh (literally cheap) and a few seconds of humor, then look no further than this item that I am selling on EBAY. If you are looking for a gift for that special someone or perhaps you just want to spoil yourself, then this is the gift for you!
Melissa is doing well. Gum is making her sleepy but other than that we are pretty fortunate that she hasn't had any morning sickness or anything. The first ultrasound is on April 9th so you can be praying for that.
