Yup! Miss G will be a big sister to a baby BROTHER come the end of January / beginning of Februrary!!! Truthfully, I wasn’t sure how she’d take the news given that she’s been totally set on having a baby sister since finding out we were expecting, but she was pleased as punch about it all and more than anything, so excited to finally find out whether she should be expecting a little brother or sister {see blurry photo evidence above}.
One catch – her name of choice for a baby brother is a little unusual. And unusual in a not so lovely way… It’s Salmon. Yup. You read that right. Salmon like the fish. Hahahahah! And because Brad and I don’t currently have a single boy’s name that we really like, our baby boy is very commonly referred to as ‘Salmon’ around the house. Let’s just hope that it doesn’t stick. ☺
In the meantime, Miss G and I have just started collecting adorable little boy things on our outings and before long, we’ll start working on the nursery too. More than anything, we’re all thrilled to be welcoming a little bundle to our family in the New Year.

We’d love to have you!
Yay! Congratulations Jen! So excited for you!
Samuel sounds a lot like Salmon…..could turn into that perhaps. I am a little biased….that is our little guy’s name. Congratulations
Congratulations Jen! Wonderful news for all of you. And guess what? So far, I’ve just clicked in here and it’s not slow for me. Yay!!! I’ll have to subscribe again so I can get updates besides on Instagram. Btw, I’m getting little banner ads flashing up on each photo now – at the bottom of each photo. Is that meant to happen? Not sure if it is for others but at least it’s not slowing my system now. I don’t know what was going on before. I can type at a normal speed now. This took me a minute instead of ten minutes to type. Phew! I’m so, so happy for you!!
Oh goodness, how can the sight of a baby jumper make me well up! (I blame the hormones!). Lovely way to share the news
Congratulations! So exciting! Salmon is a super cute nickname and will probably be around for awhile! Happy for you ALL!
Congratulations! My son picked out his sister’s name. He picked Sofia. If it had been a brother he wanted to name him Snoopy! good thing we had a girl!
Congrats Jen! Very happy for you all. How exciting. :)
Salmon… Simon or Samuel – heck why not!?! It’s one sweet story about where his name came from :)
Congratulations! My daughter also wanted a baby sister and got a baby brother (only finding out when he was actually here with us). She loves him all the same. When we were deciding his name, she wanted to call him Tinkerbell which we loved but decided that it might be a bit tricky for him when he grows up…
How about Solomon?
