I can't believe that I'm so close to 15,000 visits to my blog!! I will be giving away some blog candy which will include a stamp set and some other goodies. When I get a chance, I'll add a picture to this post. You know the drill, leave a comment on this post and you're entered into the drawing. To make it fun, why don't you give me a suggestion for a first name for our baby boy. I can't guarantee we'll use it, but who knows!!! ;) His middle name will be Peter, if that helps. It's typically a first name, but we're putting his Daddy's first name as his middle name. I'll use a random number generating program to pick the winner this time. You get to enter up until Tuesday, April 10th at noon, at which time I'll announce the winner. I'm pretty sure that I'll hit 15,000 by then :) Can't wait to see your suggestions!!!
Edited to add: I have decided on most of the blog candy. It will be the stamp set Doodle That from the Spring Mini catalog. See it here. I will also include an alterable picture frame, some 6x6 patterned paper, some embossed pieces of card stock (using my Cuttle Bug A2 embossing folders), some ribbon, and some die cuts made with my Cuttle Bug dies. I hope it sounds fun, and sorry for not having a picture. We're trying to recover from my parents leaving early this morning and I doubt I'll get time to take a picture before the drawing. I promise whoever wins the stuff will love it!!!

Well, I always liked Tristan (my son's name), if I had a second...I like Graydon. Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!
ReplyDeleteI Like Allison like the name of my son's. I have two boys named Tyson, and Jamen. I guess it kinda depends what goes with your other child's name. Can't wait to hear what you decide. I found it harder to pick a second child's name than the first. Best wishes. liz Utah
ReplyDeleteCurrently I love the name Hayden. Unfortunately all my friends of baby producing age are having girls..LOLSue
ReplyDeleteOh! How exciting! I hope you're feeling well. I've always loved my son's name (Jack Ryan). He was named for a close family friend of ours (now passed). But, if I'd had another boy, I would have gone for Aiden. I love it. Stay well!Lisa
ReplyDeleteWell, being I have 5 grandsons, boys names are pretty common around here. I like Grayson- little different. May the rest of your pregancy be stress free.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, a good name... I can tell you one I wouldn't use (again tee hee). Our youngest is Matthew. Love the name. But let me tell you, every Matthew I have come across since we had our Matthew has been a big monkey! Use this name with caution!!
ReplyDeleteCongatulations on your baby boy. I like the name Ryan and it would go so good with the middle name of Peter.
ReplyDeleteHmmm how about Daniel Peter? Then again maybe not LOL. I am not good at picking boy's names.Cindy
ReplyDeleteHmmm... Well I have an Ethan and a Shane Patrick. I also like the names Bradon and Braxton.
ReplyDeleteIf I were to be a boy, my parents would have called me Nathan Robert...so I've always liked that name!
ReplyDeleteMy son's name is Morgan. We wanted something a little less common; however now there are a LOT of girls with this name. What a bummer!
ReplyDeleteThere are only boys in our family. I have two sons, Ryan and Shane (I'm half Irish and my husband is half Scottish so we went Celtic) My BIL has two boys, Ben and Danny. My other BIL has a son named Jordan. I personally like Bryan. Bryan Peter sounds good! Whatever you choose will be perfect! Good luck with everything! Your daugters must be estatic!Tara Macfarlane
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the baby!My boys are Caleb and Lincoln so theres 2 names for ya :)Can't wait to see a pic of the blog candy :) and Happy Easter Weekend!!!
ReplyDeleteI have always loved the name Jonathan. I was to use that myself until my SIL named her son John. So I got a Benjamin-but we call him Obiwan-so guess what movie came out the week he was born? I also like Adam but a lot depends on what your last name is. I have a short last name so my kids have longer first names for a better flow.
ReplyDeleteI like the old fashioned names that everyone can spell. Since his middle name will be Peter, how about James or John. Actually I have sure both you and your hubby have thoughts on a name so....maybe another family name in there? Good luck. Can't wait to hear what you decide for a name.
ReplyDeleteWell I love the name Ryan and it would go so well with Peter. good luck and congrats on pregnancy!Nettie
ReplyDeleteI have a niece who is expecting her third child at the end of May and she is having the same problem when it comes to picking a boy's name. I always liked the unusual names for both boys & girls. One of my favorite boys names is Elijah.
ReplyDeleteI like the name Preston. That's what my daughter's name was going to be if she was a boy. Congrats!!Cheryl KVD
ReplyDeleteI am partial to my grandson's name Brian! So glad you get a boy this time! Good luck!!!
ReplyDeleteI have 2 sons, Joshua and Nathan. But I like Michael to go with Peter. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteA couple names I like are Garrett & Brendan. Congratulations on the baby boy and good luck with your pregnancy & delivery.Ilene B.
ReplyDeleteI like the names of both guys in my life, my husband and my son - Joseph and Chad. I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes well and I call tell you, you are going to have such fun with that little boy!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, it's hard not knowing you personally. Our boy name right now is Aaron. I'm a traditional-type girl and I don't like names that can be shortened. For instance, I love Samuel, but am afraid Sam would stick! :) Good luck!
ReplyDeleteWell, if Sidnee was a boy her name would have been Ryland, Isaac, or Jesse. Best of luck, that is always the hardest part!
ReplyDeleteI tell everyone having a boy to name their son, Logan. It was one of my favorite boy names, but my husband never liked it. I tried to use it three times (yes, I have three boys) and he shot it down each time. Three others for you are:Joshua,Ryan, and Nicholas (the names of my three sweet boys)Have fun, I think boy names are hard to come up with.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your number post. I like the name Peter for a middle name. If DGD had been a boy she'd be Aiden. Hope your pregnancy goes well. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThis is kind of fun! I've always liked Nathaniel. Good luck on the remainder of your pregnancy!
ReplyDeleteteehee...we are having a boy in 4 weeks...and are trying to settle on a name too! I like the name Andrew. Then you could call him drew or andy....anyways goodluck! Tracy H.
ReplyDeleteI like the name Micah. Hope all goes well with your pregnancy and delivery.
ReplyDeleteWell, I happen to be partial to Daniel, which is my son's name. I also like Logan (it was really close to being my son's) and Keagan (but my husband didn't like it). Good luck with your pregnancy!!
ReplyDeleteI've always liked my son's name...Anthony, but I also like Ryan.
ReplyDeleteI love the name Zachary for a boy, but not sure it goes with Peter. Congratulations on the swell news.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the hits!I think if we were to have another I would pick Mason,Chase or Austin.All the best with your pregnancy.
ReplyDeleteI have a son named Bray but I'm not so sure Brady Peter sounds so good. How about Dylan?
ReplyDeleteBlog candy - woohoo!!! Congrats on the news of your baby boy! My son's name is Jacob - I know the most popular boys name for lik 5 years or something. I really like the name Cooper for a boy.Geny C.
ReplyDeleteFun question! How about Jacob or Jayden? (my friends have boys with those names and I love it!). I've always like Christopher as well.
ReplyDeleteMy 2 boys names are Tyler and Ryan but If I Would have another boy I would name him Brady or Dawson .Good luck !!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations ! How about the name Brogan? Great blog!Claudia F.
ReplyDeleteMy son's name is Kenneth (he was named after my dad so that was an easy one) My husband is Douglas. his brother is Gordon. I love the traditional strong names. Although working in a school makes it hard as I relate names to kids which is sometimes not such a good thing! Good luck with the pregnancy and the name choice!Heather L.
ReplyDeleteHow about Tyler. I just like that name.
ReplyDeleteI really like the name Jacob right now. Jacob Peter... sounds nice. You could call him Jake for short. Just sayin'!
ReplyDeleteBrandon maybe? Goes good with Peter. Congrats!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your baby-to-be! You must be so excited!How about Elliot...or Benjamin...or Linden...or Miles. Miles Peter sounds neat, but not knowing your last name makes it kinda hard.Thanks for making this fun!
ReplyDeleteI love the name Paxton but my husband won't let me use it. I have only ever met one boy named Paxton. It is a unique name without being way out there. Paxton Peter......I like that.
ReplyDeleteWe just had a baby girl in December. If we had a boy I was hoping to name him Truman after my husband's Grandpa Grant. Instead we had a daughter and we named her after his Grandma Grant.... Elinor... sweet Ellie Rose.:-)Nancy G.
ReplyDeleteI like Ryan a lot... (I ended up with a precious girl!) I love your blog.
ReplyDeleteCongrats. Here is to a safe delivery and a healthy bouncing baby boy. As for a name... I wanted a Jordan but we had a girl (13 months ago) so we named her Jorden intsead! I also have a Benjamin. And I love the name Timothy. But I'm not sure if you'd want the intials TP! LOL
ReplyDeleteHello, well, I happen to like the names Kody and Karter. It's so hard to pick out names, I wish you luck with that. :)Liz K
ReplyDeleteI like the name James. Congratulations! I have 2 boys. What a trip!
ReplyDeleteHow about Robert Peter McClellan...his monogram would be RPM! Then you could measure how many RPM's you use when he goes through the toddler stage! LOLHe will be the "Little Prince" to his big sisters. Sons are wonderful!Lynda K
ReplyDeleteHi, congratulations, I have always liked the name Braydon or Kyle. Hope it all goes well. Andrea
ReplyDeletei've always thought of Payton as a great name for a son. =)
ReplyDeleteWell.. thinking of Peter as the middle name, I think I like Jacob, Anthony, Jonathan or one of my own.. William (obviously my favorite choice)!
ReplyDeleteWell this is a simple and common name but I've always loved "Michael." The other is Tyler, mostly I like the shortened name, Ty!!!YM
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you!!! I really like Gavin. Hope you're having a good pregnancy and have fun picking a name out. They say the name comes easy when the baby is born,so maybe when he comes out you will click on a diff. name all together.Good Luck and thanks for a chance at your candy!!!
ReplyDeleteMy son's name is Ryan, I also like the name Nolan for a boy. Good luck and I can't wait to hear what you picked.
ReplyDeleteJason I think is nice with Peter. :) I just found you from a link on Angie's blog, CUTE. Congrats on your high numbers.
ReplyDeleteApparently JORDAN is the most popular name for both boys and girls now. I really like that name and used it for my daughter's middle name.I think it sounds nice with Peter and your last name!My kids are named Sarah and Jackson and if we'd had another I would have used Sam. Instead we had a dog and named him SAM!LOL! We didn't want anyone else in the family to use it!
ReplyDeleteHow great that you are having a boy. I have 2 boys. So I have to say that my favorite names are Douglas and Wyat
ReplyDeleteHowabout Sawyer? It's sort of trendy now because of Lost, but then again, it's sort of nice to use a name that is hip with the times! :) Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy.Basketmom on SCS (Karen)
ReplyDeleteMy son's name is Jackson. We chose a first name with a "J" because we were going to use Patrick for the middle (my hubby's twin's first name) and I wanted the option of calling him "JP." In the end, my hubby got final say (b/c I supposedly chose our 1st child's name -- Hannah Elizabeth). So we have Jackson Samuel Patrick -- a mouthful, I know! And what's funny is we just call him "Jack" or "Jack-Jack."If we'd had a second boy, we were going for William Kristopher (my hubby's first name is Kristopher), and were planning to call him "Will." But we ended up with another girl: Katherine Lorraine ("Kate" for short & the Lorraine is for my hubby's mom).I have friends who just named their little guy Isaac which is awesome for a boy and not too common. I really like Aaron -- love, love, love that for a boy! (My hubby vetoed it, though.)Oh, baby names are SO much fun! GOOD LUCK & congrats. . .
ReplyDeleteIan or Ethan would be my choice.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the title of your blog....in fact I was looking at someone else's blog when I saw the name and thought I have to check out this blog cause I love the name. As far as boys name go I am partial to NICHOLAS, that is the name of my little guy. NICHOLAS PETER has a nice ring to it. Then again you could go with something like JACOB PETER and call him J.P. for short. Anyways just my 2 cents...back to checking out the rest of your blog.
ReplyDeletesorry had to post again, don't expect to be entered twice though...just noticed that one of your DD names was EMMA, thought this was funny cause that is my DD name...perhaps NICHOLAS is not such a bad idea....great minds think a like....LOL
ReplyDeleteOh, after reading all the fun, hip names the others have posted. I feel a little boring but the name I picked is Joseph. Joseph Peter...
ReplyDeleteI've always liked more original or unique names. My sons names are traditional but we spelled them differently to give them originality. My eldest son is Skatt (Scott) and my youngest son is Schon (Sean). I noticed a couple of the other ladies mentioned these other names that happen to be my sons middle names... Grayson, Daniel, and Jakob. My dad has two middle names so both of our boys were given two middle names - kind of a tradition. So the other middle name is Clapton - my hubby is a HUGE Eric Clapton fan. Some other boy names are Aiden, Trevin, Laurence, Nathanial, Brandon, James, Osrick, Patrick... I could go on and on... Best wishes for the rest of your pregnancy! Can't wait to hear what you name your precious little boy! ~Crystal M.
ReplyDeleteHow about Owen Peter, or Jackson Peter, both very strong, manly names.
ReplyDeleteHow about the name Matthew or Carson? I think they are both great names.Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteThis is exciting. I LOVE Matthew Christopher. I think it's an honor when children have their grandparent's name either first or middle. Baby naming is a lot of work...heavy thinking, LOL, TFS.HAPPY EASTER.
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I had a hard time coming up with a name for our son - but he is almost 5 now - and we love his name. Kasen. Good luck choosing!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your pregnancy! Since you love the outdoors, how about the name Forest? The name Jonathan would also go perfectly with the middle name of Peter.Linda SS
ReplyDeleteThe name Ian Peter has a nice ring to it. I also like a couple of the previous mentioned names: Aiden or Zachary. Good luck!Debbie
ReplyDeleteI like the name Weston (call him Wes) :-) Weston Peter has a nice ring. I LOVE your blog! Best Wishes :-)Cindy - NJ
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the baby boy thing!! I like Ryland Peter!I am so excited about this "candy!"Autumn
ReplyDeleteBoy names are SO hard. We came up with a total of 2 names that dh and I could agree on. One that we chose (that we didn't use) was Gabriel Pierce. The main reason I didn't go for Gabriel is because people would shorten it to Gabe and I don't like Gabe. But Gabriel would go with Peter...especially if you are of the religous sort.Janetroopersma on SCS
ReplyDeleteI don't know if it's helpful but my little boy is called Luke. Good luck with your pregnancy.
ReplyDeleteWe used my husband's name for our son's middle name too. We named him Tyler Daniel. There are so many good names out there. Here are some suggestions: Cole, Clayton, Mason, Riley, Noah.Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!!
ReplyDeleteI am a mother to three beautiful daughters! I love the name Ryan..we would never use it..why you ask..well my husband's name is Ryan. Not to mention it mean little king and one of those mind sets is enough. I love William, but William Peter, not to flowing. How about Jonathon. I like that. Jonathon Peter. Maybe??? Let me know what you decide!!!xoxoronee
ReplyDeleteI love the name Nicholas and it goes well with Peter. my next choice would Andrew. Good luck with the reat of your pregnancy.
ReplyDeleteHow about Andrew?
ReplyDeleteWhat about Addison? It sounds great with James! hmmmm...maybe this is a new business venture! Have a great Easter!
ReplyDeleteOHHH FUN!! I always love to try and name other peoples babies cause both of my babies have family names so we had no choice!! hhehee Preston Wyatt is my bros middle name and dads g-pas name and Haley Alexis is my madien name and DH's moms middle name. Okay enogh abotu me...how about Christian Peter? Its a cute kid name and a powerful adult name.
ReplyDeleteOur third son is Matthew Peter (the Peter being his great grandfather's name). The Matthew because we already had Luke and Jonathan, and because we like it! He is graduating from HS in a few weeks! Congrats and the best to all of you with your pregnancy!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the baby boy! How about Brett?It's a strong one syllable name which goes well with the 2 in peter and 3 in y our last name... you need to keepthose thing s in mind.. It's an old Celtic/ Viking Warrior name a well as a strong Western 'Cowboy' Name. It's also the name of my oldest son ;} If you don't like it, it's ok I love the names David, Stephen, WIlliam Bryce for Boys as well. Good luck & Good health.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if you got my comment or not so I will comment again. If Molly had been a boy, her name would have been caden (pronounced Kay den). I like that name a bunch and I don't think I know anybody with that name. Well just thought I would also tell you that I am also doing some candy for my 1,000 hits. Anyhow see you later.
ReplyDeleteNames for boys: Darren Peter Seth Peter Dale Peter David Peter Garth PeterMy pick of the above names is Seth Peter, but what do I know, I only had girls.
ReplyDeleteHmmm...my son is Nicholas, so that is a favorite, but my nephew is Elijah and I really like that too! Good luck with your choice...something will jump right out and grab you and DH...:-)
ReplyDeleteMy two sons are Geoffrey and Shawn. Geoffrey gets mispronounced alot of times, which I don't understand at all. I also like the name Jonathan.
ReplyDeleteI actually posted already, but now that I look - can't see it anywhere. Anyway, I think what I put is that you should name him Nathaniel - doesn't Nathaniel Peter have a nice ring? and he could be Nat or Nate or Nathan for short. Love it! have fun! -Maureen
ReplyDeleteMy sons names are Austin & Stetson. I also like Gavin. Picking names is a big decision isn't it? However, I found that after the first son, I had a harder time picking a middle name.Good luck with the pregnancy and the baby.Emily A
ReplyDeleteI have a Kyle and am very fond of that name. Best of luck to you during the rest of your pregnancy.
