"Turtle" Targum

Our loyal readers may recall Elliot's post from last year about the doll set that seemed to represent our family, plus a younger brother for Lucy:

Well, come February 9, 2011 (plus or minus 2 weeks), Lucy will have a baby brother.

Lucy knows that I have a baby in my belly and has had a few cute moments of kissing my belly and talking to my belly. When we asked her what she would name the baby, she thought for a moment and decreed, "Turtle." So, Turtle is the working name for now, though we advised Lucy that we reserve the right to choose a different name once the baby's actually born.

I've been feeling great, just as I did with Lucy, and the baby is doing all the things he's supposed to be doing so far.

Oh, and for any of you who know Gramps (aka Philip or my dad) - he does NOT want to know the sex of the baby. So, please try to help us keep this secret from him if possible.

How prophetic that was! Or simply life imitating toys:)

Guess I missed the email telling me I was going to a 'great' aunt again. Congrats and nice to know we will have the Targum name continued.
