I'm adding two polls for you to take. These are the two things that preoccupy my thoughts, so why not let you worry about them for a bit along with me? Sorry-- no prizes for the winner(s). Just the knowledge that you totally knew what was going on before I did. Don't you feel smart now?

Judging by the current results, you're having twins (a boy AND a girl), and they'll be born on Thanksgiving!!! CONGRATS!!! ;0)
If you have a girl, will you name her Jennifer? Or maybe just Jen, which would make it edgy? I'm just asking.
I'm also realizing--and tell me if you agree-- that if you're going to have a boy & a girl, it's better to have the boy first because boy hand-me-downs to a girl are totally fine, and cute, but girl hand-me-downs to a boy-- not so much. Agree?
I already have a sister-in-law named Jeni and the most boring last name ever, so we'll probably try to go with something a little less heard of, if you know what I mean. You'd be amazed how hard it is to find names that work with the last name "Smith." Seriously! Anything starting or ending with an "s" is automatically out. Joseph & Hyrum & Emma & Lucy are out. And anything normal, like John, is out. Even "th" sounds you sort of want to steer clear of! It's a nightmare!
I TOTALLY agree that you can use hand-me-down boy clothes for girls, but not the other way. My little girl wears her brother's old jeans all the time, but if Lucky is a boy, he will NOT be wearing her jeans! The upside to girls is that they can wear more colors, as long as it's a dress. If it's in dress form, blue is totally okay on a girl! Poor boys really never get to wear pink or purple, though...
Deep stuff, trying to dress and name these babies!
