I have decided to give my daughter a new nickname - at least while she's still in the womb. I am calling her the Hamm. As in Mia Hamm the soccer player. There's a whole lot of kicking going on in there!
She actually has a few nicknames so far, none very original. Mostly we call her Clairebear. A lot of times she's the wiggleworm or the kicker or the jumping bean. My dad says he just likes that she already has a name and we use it all the time like she's already here. I like that too. I know a lot of folks find it fun to be surprised, but for me, knowing ahead of time who she is has allowed me a lot of quality bonding before she gets here.
We're working our way closer to the end of this pregnancy journey and all I can say is "Bring on the showers!" My first one is this weekend. I'm hoping to post some pictures soon...
