TTC After a Loss

OCD tendencies (notTTCALR)

By nature, I have OCD tendencies.  Now that I am within 50 posts of moving on to bronze status, I do apologize, but OCD has taken over and now I am obsessed with getting those 50 posts as quickly as possible.  Please, bear with me.   I can be kind of a spaz when things like this get into my head.  Geeked

    Pink! I even wore a pink wedding dress. Very, very, very light pink, but pink nonetheless.

    Okay, I apologize - I did NOT actually hit post with those last 2 blank posts, and that is the God's honest truth.  Maybe the bump Gods are trying to help me out.  Anyway, Thank you Ginger!  I LOVE my son's name -- a lot of people thought it was really weird when he was born, but it has definitely grown on them.  Most people now just say it's cool.  Cool  Yep, that's him - cool.  Smile  Zephyr is Greek for "West Wind"  The winds of change come from the West.  It seemed awfully fitting.  His first and middle names are Zephyr Zekiah.  Zekiah is taken from my great-grandfather's name, Hezekiah.  I liked Zekiah so much, I almost saved it for a second son (to be called Zeke, for short), but then I thought, you know, nothing in life is guaranteed, plus I wanted to honor my mom's family while also giving him some fantastic initials -- ZZZ!

    1. When did you get married? - okay, I admit it, I am not big on marriage.  I would rather live in sin and make choices that will, according to the religious right wing, land me in hell.  (IE, Haven't actually gotten married; doubt it will ever happen -- I'm happy with things the way they are)  Scandal!

    That is a great story and I love that he is ZZZ. So cute. I think that is so cool because it's edgy and unique but it also sounds nice. Unique boy names are so hard because you don't want to get effeminate.

    DH and I are set on a girl's name-Winter-but we cannot come up with a good, unique, boy name. DH suggested Maximus, but to me that sounds kind of like a porn star (not that I should talk being named Ginger) and I just think he might end up being short (DH and I are tall but DH's only full sister is tiny) and it would invite teasing x a million. 

    DH also jokes about Duke (if you can remember my last name from FB, you'll see why that's funny) and now he's onto Atlas. I don't like it.

  • 2. What was your favorite subject? -- As a kid, I LOVED Social Studies, and my favorite time of the day was when we would get to read independently!  LoL  My BEST subject was writing, which was fun because I could BS my way through just about anything in High School (and often did - I rebelled against being given books that were required reading in HS - I loved to read, just not what I was assigned to read.)

    As a teacher, my favorite subject to teach is math, for 2 reasons.  1)  Math always has an answer - it is very cut and dried, for teaching purposes.  2) as a kid, math was hard, so, as a teacher, I understand how kids feel about math and get it when they are 'scared' -- and because it didnt always make sense to me as a kid, I explain the concepts I teach in about 4 different ways, which means, most of my kids do very well in math.  Brag here - the last test I gave my students, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM passed the test!!  image

  • 3. What type of car do you drive? -- A GMC Acadia.  I feel sad every time I drive it though, because we bought it about 2 weeks after the BFP, because we were going to need more room for the baby.  So it serves as a reminder of what might have been.  But I am trying to look on the positive side - we will STILL need the extra space, just not as soon as we had originally planned!

  • 4. What's your favorite TV show? -- Hmmmm, I don't really have one.  I like to catch Medium on Friday nights, and I will watch just about any Law and Order that is on.  I watch Days and General Hospital, but only on breaks from school, and I don't keep up with it otherwise (I tried, but it took too much time).  I am a sci-fi geek, and love to watch old reruns of Star Trek.  Geeked  This past weekend, I watched Cake Boss and thought that was kind of fun - and sometimes, I get really into watching TLC (Sister Wives, 19 kids and counting, etc).  But if I miss any of these, I'm not heartbroken, so I guess I'm not really that much of a TV watcher.

  • 5. What's your favorite food?

    Hmmmm, All-American fare is the best.  Give me a good cheeseburger with extra pickles, and a side of cheese fries.  Mmmm!  I also love my mom's homemade lasagna - nothing beats that lasagna!  and Chicago Style deep dish pizza.  I'm hungry now!

  • 6. What's your favorite flower?  Roses.  And Daisies.  Roses because they are pretty and smell so good, and Daisies because, as Meg Ryan says in You've Got Mail, daisies are the happiest flower....  Smile

    Thanks Ginger!  Zephyr is considered a "unisex" name and I have actually seen mroe girls than boys named Zephyr, but to me, it sounds more masculine than feminine.  We call him Z, Zeph, Zephy (like Zeffie)  or ZZ.  He calls himself Zesser.  I think he's going to have a rough time spelling his name someday, but he's smart, so he'll get it eventually.

    Winter is pretty, I like it.  With the last initial of Z, it is really tempting to do more "fun initials" names, if there are ever any more babies.  With my m/c pregnancy, I was positive it was a boy and had a name all picked out.  His initials would have been XYZ.  If only..... As far as Maximus is concerned, we have a friend who's son is named Maximus!  He's "Max" to all the kids in school, and the name fits him, really!  So don't be afraid of the name -- names tend to fit once a kid wears them for awhile.  As far as Duke with your last name - that had me in stitches!

    Ginger, GORGEOUS!!!!  Very pretty, I love it!  Those little girls' dresses are darling, too; they look like princesses.  And you're right - I LOVE the flowers!  You definitely wore the pink very well!  I couldn't pull the pink off - I am short and rather 'stocky' (read FAT).  I think you need to be like you - tall and slender - to pull off a pink princess dress like that.  ;)  Thanks for sharing the pic!

    Well I hope you get to do XYZ! That would be cool!

    I love the name Xavier but it's getting kind of popular, which is weird. I do like Max too, so we'll see. I can only hope that we have to worry about this sometime in the future. I'll even name my poor kid Duke O' Our Last name if I can just HAVE ONE!

    Glad I could help up your post count, it's been fun chatting Smile
