Baby Leavitt #3 is a....

BOY!!! So much for mother's intuition! :) I was fairly convinced this was a girl. The pregnancy has been so different from my other two. But there was no mistaking it. Definitely a little man. :)

I was telling Josh that this is what we get for only being able to think of girls' names that we liked. We've got squat for boys' names. So...suggestions, anyone? We tend to like classic names, though I try to stay away from very popular ones to avoid having a million friends/classmates with the same name. (I always loved being the only Launi). But we don't like names that are super "unique" or outlandish either. So possibly a name you've heard before, but not too often.

Also, Josh has a rule that we can't have any more names with "A" or "N." I guess that comes from growing up in a household full of "J's". :) Too bad that the boy names I was leaning to most were "Adam" and "Nicholas."

Suggest away! If we end up using a name you suggested, I will send you a prize. :)

And by the way....YAY! :) I have another cute little boy coming along in a few months. I love him so much already! It's so fun to see your little one in the ultrasound. We got to see a big yawn, a thumbs up, and even a high five. Also, he was kissing the placenta. I kid you not. Lips puckered up and squashed right onto it. Really funny. :)

How fun! You will be a pro at raising boys :)

Yay for cute little boys! My vote is Benjamin or Emmett. Good luck finding the perfect name!

I think Banana #1 would be great. Or perhaps Tomas. Then you need a daughter and name her Luis. Perfecto.

Congrats!!!! A lot of families around me seem to stick to one gender :) You are going to have a house full of gentlemen :)

Yaaay!! Before we found out Katy was a girl I loved the name Brady. Classic and not too popular. Congrats!

Alan said...

Yay for little boys! Alan was convinced this one of ours was a girl, but nope, definitely a boy. Now my little boy and your little boy can be friends. Hooray! Congrats!

Kirk, John, or Blake would be great.

I love him already too, and can't wait to kiss him! :) I vote for Ahab the Arab, or just Ahab for short. You know you want to.

Laura said...

Oh this will be great!!!! Cute ultrasound story...that's one of my favorite parts too!
Congratulations!

Katie said...

This is super exciting! I want a boy! Some boys Michael has seriously told me he likes Don Julio.... you can take it and it will give me a reason not to use it! ;-)

Here are a few I've pondered, Jack, Trystan, Scott, Kaden, Payten, Jordan, William (but call Liam) Kash, Mason, Hunter. Okay those are really the students in my class but maybe it will spark some ideas? Ha good luck!

Yay, Launi! Congratulations! I am so happy for you. I don't know what it is, but seriously, doesn't it seem like there is some kind of boy phenomenon going on these days? Everywhere I look, people are only having BOYS!!! Guess we're building up a huge future missionary pool! Again, major congratulations!
Love ya!

devin said...

Oh, and "devin" is really "Heather and Devin Irvine"...weird!

maryirene said...

I am so excited for you Launi! congrats! wow, three boys! Crazy fun stuff! boy names are really hard for us as well and we have two so I totally understand what you mean. Good luck on the name! I am so happy for you!

Rob and Marseille said...

how can you not have an "A" in the name? Caleb, James, Michael, Christopher, (I know I'm funny...), Dallin

Launi said...

i guess i phrased that kind of wrong, marseille. he doesn't want any names that START with "A" or "N" because we already have those. and most of his family's names start with "J."
