20 Week Ultrasound

It's a... Healthy Baby! These were taken just this morning and I just received word from the doctor that everything looks great! The baby was super active (as it always is...) so it was difficult to get good photos, but here we are!

We still have our baby name contest going! Whether the baby is boy or girl, the initials will be SJVO.
1) Guess the baby's name. Winner will be announced after the baby is born.
2) Give the baby a nickname. Winner will be announced at the baby shower in August (we may choose to announce sooner since I'd like to start calling the baby by a nickname ;) ).
Both winners will be given a nice prize.

More Entries:

Sarah Mullen: Samantha Jean Victoria Oliver or Samuel John Victor Oliver. Sammich
Nichole Marie Howland: Sunny Joy Violet Oliver or Scott James Victor Oliver
Tuesday Perry-Rubsam: Scarlett Jewel Victoria Oliver or Samuel Joshua Vice Oliver
JerryJamie Joz: Suzan Jefferson Victoria Oliver

THE Conversation

Thanks Stampylongnose of You Tube for initiating THE conversation with my daughter before we were ready!
Peter: Rayne, you should play The Sims.
Rayne: The Sims has inappropriate stuff in it.
Peter: Like what?
Rayne: Like the thing they do under the blankets.
Peter: ...
Me: LMAO, can't argue with that one!
Rayne: What is it called?
Peter: We'll talk to you about that later.
Rayne: Is that what you did to get pregnant?
...
Me: Rayne can you stop asking questions, now?

We knew the time was approaching to talk to her about it especially with sharing things about the pregnancy with her, but.......... She just keeps surprising me with how smart she is!

20 Week Update - Let's Play a Game!



20 weeks today! Yay, we've reached the halfway point! I've lost yet another pound making it an 11 lbs loss since getting pregnant. Checkup on Monday and anatomy scan on Thursday!

In light of this, LET'S PLAY A GAME: Whether the baby is boy or girl, the initials will be SJVO.
First, we'd like to see what nicknames you all come up with based on that.
Second, can you guess the name?
We'll have a gift for the person with the best nickname to be presented at the baby shower in August (no date set yet) and a gift for the person who guests the full name correctly to be presented after the baby is born. Ready? Set. GO!

Guesses so far:
Jen Byberg: Samuel Jameson Vincent Oliver or Samantha Jillian Victoria Oliver. San Juan 5-0
Nita Hahn: Scarlett Jaclyn Victoria Oliver or Stig Jackson Valor Oliver
Gwendel Rodriguez: Sambuca Jameson Vodka Ouzo. Now THAT'S a grandbaby you won't be able to keep me from.
Julian Rey Ortega: Jay Vo
Jaded Love: Steven Javier Victor Oliver or Stephanie Jeanette Victoria Oliver. Soji, sajov, say jay, sovi
