Chandler Lee Harris

As with most every unborn child, the biggest questions we have received (and their respective answers) are as follows.  I'm sure there will be more down the road but the big 3 are...

1. When are you due? April 1, 2011 (not an April Fool's joke)
2. What is the gender? Male
3. What are you going to name him? Chandler Lee Harris

Finding the right name is a tough, stressful task.  There are numerous books, websites, apps (yes, we have at least 2), personal suggestions, etc. that provide endless lists of names to consider based on origin, popularity, spellings, meanings...you name it, there is a baby name list.  With all the possibilities, we were able to narrow it down to a few select preferred names and then by process of elimination, we landed on the name Chandler Lee Harris.  Chandler is a name that we both just really liked.  We were aiming for traditional yet uncommon and we think we have found that in Chandler.  Lee is a family name on Lauren's side (Thomas side to be specific) that we knew we wanted to use/incorporate somehow.  

Since we are not good at keeping secrets, we wanted to put the name out there for the world to see.  Plus, there are just too many things Aunt Claire is eager to monogram before April 1st!

On another note, it has also been a few weeks since we have posted a picture.  It seems that in the past week and a half or so Lauren has started to show more.  The pictures apparently do not do justice to the actual belly size (which Lauren doesn't mind) but here is Week 22 & 3 days.  We will be visiting family in Georgia for a few days and then heading home to MS for Christmas and hope we can visit with as many people as possible so you can make your own conclusion.
