Snips and snails, and puppy dog tails,
That’s what little boys are made of.
What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice, and everything nice,
That’s what little girls are made of.

  1. The minute I read, "Snips and Snails" I knew it! Yay!!!!!!!! Soooo…what are the names, thus far? And a very big congrats on the hubster's job interview! But back to you. How are you feeling these days? Morning sickness gone? Nice to read some happy news. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the job.

  2. Oh, Heather — how cool! You'll have the "million-dollar" family! :-D

    Congratulations … I'm thrilled to pieces that all is well! :)

  3. LOL Les! Names….looks like it will be Wesley James, after my dad and his dad. Although we still really like Gabriel Archer. As for how I'm feeling; I'm much better. I was having all day morning sickness. Now it's pretty much first thing in the morning, before I eat, and sometimes if I cough too deep. I cough when I'm thirsty. And I had my first bloody nose this morning! Yay. I had those with Ellie. Embarrassing, but not horrible.

    Thanks Jenn!!! It's still sinking in…don't have much experience with boys, but I'm getting used to the idea. I'm thrilled everything looks good!

  4. YAY!!! What a good day! An interview and a boy!

    *jumping up and down for you*

  5. Yay! Congratulations! So glad everything looks good and he's healthy. And good luck to your hubby on the interview!

  6. Congrats Heather.

    Is it not "frogs and snails" or is this another one of those US/Ireland differences?

  7. Thanks Andi and Nat!

    I guess so Fence! I looked it up to be sure. I think I might light frogs better, because really, what the heck is a snip?

  8. Congratulations on both the baby front and the interview front :) Wishing you the best!

  9. Congrat and Congrats!!!!

    So I suppose this means that you will not be naming the baby Amanda????

  10. Congratulations! Are you still in baby-naming talks or has that been settled?

    Good luck and positive vibes to hubby for his interview!

  11. Thanks Ex!

    Thanks Amanda! And, sadly, no I don't think we'll be naming him Amanda.

    Thanks Lesley! The name seems to be settled. He'll be Wesley James. Even Ellie thinks it's "the perfect name."

  12. Yay!! I have 2 boys! Good luck ;)

  13. Yay! So fun to have a boy and a girl, just like I have now, too! Congratulations to your family. Is Ellie so excited?
