Look at those dark eyes! He's amazed us with periods of alertness, where he seems to be taking in all his surroundings. We've had such a peaceful day together. As would seem to be our habit, we haven't chosen a name for him yet. We welcome suggestions.
Will post more soon...
Update 9/18: His name is Maximus Richard. Going by Max, and sometimes being called Ike by his slightly addled (though adoring) parents.
I would hope you could muster the courage to consider:
ReplyDeleteGreenburg, Glickstein, Charles, David, Smith OR Jones ...
if the girls had been boys we were jazzed for Benjamin Hercules and Christopher Thor.
Congratulations! He's a gem.;o) ...

S.I.D.E. Project? love ya, thanks for being.
Charlemagne Roland Kil
ReplyDeleteCharlemagne for his first name as the new emperor
Roland for the middle name as he was Charlemagne’s captain.
Nickname for Charlemagne would be Chuck and Roland was his great Grandfather's middle name.
Love,
