Baby Names
We spent yesterday afternoon in Baltimore. On the way out of town, we paused on the Chester River Bridge to take a picture of the boats assembled along the water for the yearly downrigging.
By the time we got to the Bay Bridge, the skies were blue.
There is a rather dramatic monument to George Washington in the middle of Baltimore.
We hung out at Christian and Emily's for a while. Two weeks into their marriage, they still seem to like one another. Iggy and Ruby have come to the point in their relationship where they know how to share a bed.
Later, we went to our friend Beth Duncan's house for her long-anticipated housewarming party. The party was so fun that we had no time to take pictures. So you will have to use your imagination. As we milled about, chatting and nibbling, the quesiton of baby names came up a time or two. Our friend Sara recounted the name given by a friend of hers to a snow white cat: Pile of Coke. Which led to discussion of whether "Pile of Coke Swanson" might be a good name for the yet-to-arrive child. After all, the child will be mostly white. Sara's boyfriend Nolan added "Machine Gun Boner Swanson" to the mix. And, not to be outdone, the eternally amusing Supi Loco suggested "Don Johnson Swanson."
Opinions on these options and further suggestions are welcome.
At the end of the night, we went back to Christian and Emily's to pick up Iggy. Fresh off a night on the town, they were looking awfully spiffy.
We, on the other hand, were looking rather wrinkly.
Don Johnson Swanson...it has a certain ring...
