Baby #2 Has a Name!

It’s been an on-going saga of what to name our second son. You see, we really liked Anthony and obviously used it for our first. A ton of names were tossed out and rejected and the only 2 that remained on the table for the entire name-picking duration were Carmine and Vincent. It was an equal split of 50-50 and nothing really worked at picking the name.
I tried my mom’s trick of yelling it outside at the top of my lungs - they both sounded good. Let’s face it we all know I’ll be yelling it a lot so it’s a good test. REALLY, just try it. I tried asking the baby what he thought and didn’t get any more responses in kicks, rolls or anything one way or the other so he didn’t seem to mind either name. I asked everyone I know and it was split so what was left to do? Nick hit on the brilliant idea of asking Anthony! So about two weeks ago we asked Anthony which name he wanted to use for his baby brother and he picked it! It was the cutest thing ever - he sat and considered it for like 2 seconds and then said *very clearly* Vince. Nick asked him a few more times just to make sure and each time he said Vince. So Vincent Christopher it will be! It is officially official, or will be once he is born and it’s on his birth certificate.
