Todd?  How about Valentino? He'd be the only lil kid in the UP with an Italian accent.  
Congrats if I haven't already said it.  I'm always careful what I say to pregnant women.
I thought I was complimenting my wife once when I said she didn't look so pregnant from behind.  Started WWIII over that one.  Sheesh...go figure.  
 ;)

The story behind Todd:  One night I was sitting on the couch and Buddy, my weiner dog, goes marching right across my stomach like he always does.  Greg said, "Buddy, don't step on Todd!"  and it stuck.  Plus it really riles up my grandma and she says, "You're not really naming it Todd are you?!!!"  

I'm easily amused these days, let me tell you!

Plus, I'd have to go with Sete using Nicky's accent if I used a MotoGP named.  Set-taaa

Hey Heather--here's an idea for you on names.  Eric and I came up with a pretty cool way to pick the name for our first baby...

We decided long ago that we didn't ever want to know the sex of our baby just to make things more interesting and fun.  When it came to names, we just couldn't decide on much of anything.  I was convinced I was having a boy and Eric was convinced it was a girl only because he says I'm never right.  So, for a girl name we decided on Madison, but for a boy name we thought of a cute game.  I liked Hayden and Sete so we decided when the baby was born whoever was in the GP points lead (of those two) is what we would name the baby.  We all know the outcome, though...Maddie was born and blew the whole bet.  I like her though, and she still looks cute in her leathers.  :)

Congrats!

Hi guys!  Yes, I'm alive, I was just hibernating for a while, trying to get used to my new job of 24-Hour-Mommy.  It has it's perks, but I'm getting kind of worried that perhaps it isn't normal to go to the grocery store with Cheerios stuck to my clothes...Heather, you'll have to let me know if that happens to you too in a few months.  :)

Seriously, though, becoming a mommy has been the greatest gift.  You two won't recognize what used to be your lives once Todd gets here, but you'll love your new lives more than you can imagine.  You'll sit back and wonder, "What did we used to do with our time???", and "I remember when I won the overall championship...where was Todd?" and you'll have to remind yourself that he (or she) wasn't even thought of yet.  It's totally weird and totally wonderful all at the same time.

Hey Tiff,

I have a dachshund that's going to be on cheerios duty.  I think our kid may starve to death once it figures out what a fun game it is to feed Buddy.
