Welcome!
We hope you enjoy all things about the Ogilvie boys (and maybe a little about the rest of the family too).

Boy Names Poll
So some people don't share the names that they are contemplating for their baby because of the reactions they get from people. It's true that I have gotten some funny reactions, but we are having such a hard time coming up with a name that we both like that I thought it would be fun to open it up to a poll. Please select a name from the poll, or send a suggestion. Remember the last name is Ogilvie, so it should sound good with all the vowels in that name and the initials should not spell something funny! There are names that have officially been removed from the running, but I am still curious to see your picks. Unfortunately, I left out some of Aaron's picks, such as Danger, or the Roman names like Ceasar Augustus or Maximus. In the parenthesis are the possible nicknames for each name as well as their meaning.
Expectant Parents
Here is a recent photo of Aaron and I at Amy and Rich's wedding in Tahoe. I am week 28 here, officially the 3rd trimester! Today, as I am posting this, I just started week 30. If you can believe it, I have gained approximately 30 pounds and they say I am supposed to gain about 10 more pounds! I think it is all belly because my lower back feels like it is on the verge of snapping in half. We are hoping to put the finishing touches on the baby room this weekend, so stay tuned for pics of that - and I think there needs to be more pics of the expectant dad!

It's a Boy!
Early Ultrasounds
Approximately Week 15 Ultrasound. We went to a facility that basically does ultrasounds and nothing else. They projected the ultrasound onto a huge flat-panel monitor, so viewing the baby was amazing.
Approximately Week 4 Ultrasound. The baby's nickname at this point was either peanut or little grasshopper.

Breaking the News to the P-rents and Sis
So we found out the fabulous news shortly before Christmas. We were planning to be in Chicago for my Dad's 60th birthday, so it was a perfect opportunity to spring the news on them while opening Christmas presents. So I got T-shirts made for Mom and Dad that said "I'm Gonna be a Grandma" and "I'm Gonna be a Grandpa." Check out the video to see the reaction!! You absolutely must have the volume on to experience the full range of my Mom's vocal cords. The second video is us telling my sister when she arrived in town a couple days later. The reaction is similarly fantastic.
