Our third baby will be born in June or July...I'm not really sure, and I don't have a doctors appointment until December 14th.
She or he will be Sharon Rose Paulson Tate or (buckle up) Johnadams Fox Ebenezer Paulson Tate.
It's my child. He or she can have five million names if I want, right?
I like Rose of Sharon, but the only way I can get Josh to agree is if we name our next boy Bull Bradley instead of Bradley Bull. And that's just cruel.
The word is out. Yahoo!

When did you find out? I ask because at Sharon's Reception I told Paul I thought you were pregnant. Congratulations all around. We are so happy for you.

hmmm...J.F.E.P.T.
kinda seems like a blog comment verification word. maybe they'll do his birth certificate in wavy, colorful text.

Congratulations!! Geeze woman, you're as crazy with your child spacing as I was :) It gets...fun at times, and other times it really is fun.

My (unsolicited) two cents: speaking as someone who has more than one middle name, IT'S A PAIN IN THE BUTT!!! Many forms only allow you one, so it depends whether you look at my license, my house deed, my bank account, etc. as to which of the myriad of name combinations you get. That's my bit, I've said it, and I'll ne'er repeat it regardless of how many names you give child #3 :)

Congrats again!

Hurrah!

We are happy, yes, so happy!

Praise God for creating little lives within!

(p.s. If we ever have a boy, which may be a lost cause, Ebenezer is on the names list. Not Scrooge, though, just Ebenezer. And I really like your names. They remind me of trains with lots of boxcars strung behind.)

p.s.
I also like your new profile pic (even though I'm fond of double chins). You're pretty.

How about sticking a "Reckoner" in there for me?

Hey! I never agreed on the crazy middle names!

Kelly Visel said...

I like the compromise concerning the name "Bull".

Liana said...

Congratulations, Sarah! It's such a blessing & i'm so excited for you both. Children truly are gifts from God!
I, too, like your new profile pic!

Crank um out, baby.
I love you and I love Josh and I think you make splendid spawn (in the words of the proud papa himself). And yes, you can have as many names as you like, and even though Galilee C. is "the strangest thing anyone has ever done with a name," I'll love little Johnadams Fox Ebenezer Paulson Tate forever (and a little Rosie just as much). Smooch.

sarah said...

All of my kids already have two middle names..."David Paulson" for Bowden and "Gates Paulson" for Lucy, and my full name is now Sarah Christine Paulson Tate, and my little last name is set below my other names, so whenever a shop clerk looks at my license to verfiy my credit card, they always hesitate...I just added on ONE extra name beyond that, and the boy will be nicknamed Jack. Not "J" just Jack.

And Galilee is a pretty enough name for two.
But I like the "C." I think it's just funny.

Why do you and Josh only conceive at a very certain point in the year? All your babies are going to be very very close in birthdays- they can have joint parties like we did!!!! That's what I was thinking about last night as I drove home from work. And sharon sounds like the name of a 40 year old soccer mom with general life angst. Change it to Rose of Sharon, which is just beautiful.
(That's why Justin won't let me tell anyone our baby names- because he doesn't want the suggestions- they seem to be swallowed after the baby comes.)

rosie left me a message saying i was going to be a double auntie, and for a startled moment i thought she had found out she was pregnant with twins. i like jack. and bull.

sarah said...

thanks! what about rosie?

You SO have to do Rose of Sharon. You get two names in for the price of one. Especially if you go with the whole Ros'a'shar'n drawl.

Its worth Bull Bradley. And even if its not, you can tell him you agree until you get the signature on Rose of Sharon, and then have a "change of heart" later, right?

Congrats guys!!

Hey, Mrs. Potent.

Do you need size 18 mos. clothes? I don't have an email address for you, so I'm misusing your comments section to ask this. I've got a few nice things in size 18 months to pass off to you if you need them, and if you're desperate, I have a few that you could use for play clothes, too. Anyway, let me know.

Mrs. Pow!en
