AW: 3D ultrasound (PIP)

I updated on my post below that the scan went well and that he is adorable (so, so in love!).

DH kept repeating how much Baby M looks like me. However, I'm pretty much the female version of my grandfather. So, I did some digging and found pictures of my grandfather at 2 to compare the photos. They look soooo much alike! My grandfather was one handsome fella and all the ladies loved him ;)

I'm going to talk to DH about naming tonight. After seeing the comparison of these pictures, there's no way I can't honor my grandfather in some way. He was Walter Francis and went by Mack to his friends. MN has to be David after DH (family tradition, first son's MN has to be dad's FN). He's already turned down it as a FN.

Here's baby and grandpa to compare! I'll be poofing the picture of my grandfather later.

  • I like both Walter David and Francis David! Either way he will have a great name! And he's a cute kid already!
  • I think thats one of the best 3D u/s pictures i've seen!

    good luck naming the little guy

  • Such a cute picture!

    Have you thought about 2 middle names? Just a thought, or you can give him the nickname Mack?

    @amccul20 - Thank you! I was amazed how great of shots she was able to get considering he's still breech (in fact, he nuzzled his face into me during the scan - like he was burying his face in a pillow lol).

    @smbenevides1989 - MN "has to" be David. I'm going to approach the two middle name idea but my gut feeling is that he's not going to go for it.

    Since he originally liked Jack, I'm thinking I could get him to go along with Mack for a nn, but I'm struggling with a first name to pose to him. I personally like Walter David, but he turned that down when we first found out we were pregnant.

  • I love Francis David with the NN Frankie. Also love the idea of just using Mack as a NN.

    What would you have Mack short for? Someone on my BMB suggested Cormac, just trying to think of a few option to present him with.

  • I don't think you necessarily have to have a name associated with that nn. My boss just had a grandson born on 11-12-13. His real name is Lucas, but they are calling him a nn that is no where near that name (it starts with a B, I just cannot think of it at the moment).

  • Omg he's so cute! Definitely a resemblance there. :)

    Could you just do a name that starts with W? Not necessarily Walter if your DH isn't on board, but still a W so it would represent your grandpa. That's what we did with Adalyn, her mn starts with P to represent my maiden name, but it isn't my actual maiden name.
