And Baby Makes Three
Whoever said that God doesn't have a sense of humor was out to lunch. Here's my lovely wife Francine, recovering from her accident. She had a tree through her leg. She had a chuck of her femur bone punched out, her pelvis was broken and she is still on crutches, getting the use of her muscles back in her leg. And now guess what? Yeah, she's expecting a baby. Crazy huh? We've already got two kids, but it took forever to have those. We're just not the kind of people who have babies when we share our toothbrushes. So this was a HUGE surprise. Never a dull moment in the McGonnell household. By the way, everything's fine. The baby's healthy. Francine's coming along great. Our only problem now is we can't decide on names. We have Simon for a boy (though after knowing Simon from Youth Group, I may change my mind yet...). But a girl's name is still up in the air. What do you think? Francine likes "Hope." But to me, "Hope" is not a name, it's a verb...ah well.

I don't think you should even worry about a girl's name since according to you it's going to be a boy, unless your having doubts about that now...lol!
k, I totally disagree with Sara. you should have a girls name ready to go, because really, apparently, all the male DNA from the Rancourt side has been wasted on my brothers.
Sorry Matt, guess ure just going to have to train the girls to wear capes to school and be nerdy and stuff...lol
I really like the names Inga, or Gertrude (Gert for short) Those are some good ones. Or you could make up a name! Like combine all your names so the baby could be called... Mafradanhan! Kind of rolls of your tongue eh? No? fine. do whatever you want!
Ooh Matt if it's a boy you should name it Matt Junior, MJ for short! Then when I have a baby named Billy Junior (i still have to find my billy...) they'll match!!!! And if it's a girl.. well it could be like Mattete? Lol I don't know. I'll see you tonight at youth group though. Bye!
Oooh go to www.babynames.com, there's lots to pick from on there. Plus it gives the meaning and where it's from. It's a neat site, you should go!
Whatever you do guys, don't let Ben name it.lol....Gertrude???? It sounds like an 80 year old woman's name, no offence Ben lol...I like the name Tyson for a boy and Harmony for a girl
i think you should name it after me, cause unless it's changed, the babie's due date is my birthday, coincidence? i think not. and yes hope is a verb, and gertrude ben? really... but mafradanhan does have a certain... allure to it. he he :)
Or maybe if you wanted to go with the combining-names thing, you could name it Mattcine Hannelle. It actually sounds pretty good! Really. You have to name it that now. Because it could be a boys name OR a girl. Coincidence? I think not! And Vinnie, that's OUR (me and Krystle's) phrase! Cooincidence? I think not!!!
