Well since this is brought back and I have done an awful job of posting regularly lately, I will update...
We have picked a name!!! (I think.) We had been stuck between Henry and Knox mainly, but have now chosen Max. Maxwell __________ H. Middle name list still has about 20 contenders, but so far we are loving it and great that we both agree.
Abel Richard - which I love and hate at the same time. DH suggested it and while I would NEVER have suggested Abel, it really sticks in my head as the "right" name.
Boy: Caleb James/John/Joseph Girl: DH likes Reagan Marie, I like EmJay Marie. . . .
So hopefully it's a boy, because we agree on the boy name!
With my first Caleb James was the very first name I thought of...then I had a little boy named Caleb in a class I taught, he ruined the name for me. But I loved the idea of the nick name CJ. Of course now there's no way my little guy could ever be anything but Sterling!
I'm struggling with the name a bit. We want to honor my grandma Anna (pronounced AHN-na not ANN-a). But ever since I saw the name Annika I'm absolutely in love with it - it just seems to fit the idea of my daughter so perfectly, plus I would pronounce it AHN-nee-ka so it's close in spirit to grandma's name. DH suggested that it is not classic enough given our sons' names: Isaac and Theodore (nn Ikey and Teddy). He suggested Anna with the nn Annika which makes zero sense to me. I promised to keep thinking but for a month already I can't help but refer to her in my head as Annika Hope (mn for DH's grandma).
Re: names update! Put the name you are thinking here!

@BuckeyeANG My brother's name is Weston James and he is awesome, I vote that combo
Jude Meyer was born January 12, 2014, at 21 inches, 7lb, 8oz.
DD will probably be named Marit Kathryn. Marit is the swedish form of Margaret and Kathryn was my beloved grandma's name
@ninjafarmerswife Thats awesome! I don't hear of many people named Weston. James is also DH's middle name so its definitely still in the running.
