Abe is embracing the role of big bother and we feel so lucky he has adjusted so well to such a major change. There has been one major challenge though: Leo's name. Over the last two months it has become pretty apparent that much like with Abe's name Leo is not necessarily a fan favorite and that it OK with us. The most surprising development though is that the biggest critic of the name is Abe!
Jeff and I spent 9 months "strategically negotiating" a name and after a lot of research, a few tears and a ton of laughter we finally agreed on and notarized (long story there) the name. Unfortunately Abe chose his own name for Leo about a week after we told him he was going to be a big brother. The name is a bit catchy, fits perfectly with his cowboy obsession and after 9 months is still going strong. We keep waiting for it is go away, for Abe to let it go, for the phase to pass, for him stop correcting us whenever we say Leo. IT'S NOT.
Well, I'm with Abe, I kind of like "Bubba"
