Well since the pondboss family was there for support prior to having Wyatt I thought I would share some news. As some of you know we struggled for 4.5 years before having Wyatt. He was truly a miracle and I will never forget all the kind words of support. Folks whom I have never met will never know how helpful you were. You name it and we did it to get him here, wife surgery, me surgery, 6 iui and failed in vitro. We were beat down and about financial broke. Then your prayers for us worked- Wyatt was born- remember the relative weight on him (whoa 4 yrs ago now).
After Wyatt we had two miscarriages and failed in vtiro and failed frozen embryo transfer. You know where this is going right. That is right without the help of an MD Wendy is expecting. Due in December is Grimes #2 and found out today Wyatt will be having a BROTHER! We had girl names picked out but now begin our search for boy name. Feel free to throw out some suggestions. Have fun with it or be serious. Thanks for letting me share the wonderful news. Take care.

Consider the name Jhap. It's unusual. It's catchy. I reeks of stardom. Congratulations my friend, Ricki and I couldn't be happier for you two! seriously, consider Jhap. Jhap Grimes, it has a sort of ring to it. (Actually Jeff Grimes sounds pretty cool).  Give Wendy a big hug for us! Oh and obviously we will require a boga-grip weigh in for the new addition.
JHAP

Great news Greg!!!
How does "Magnus Grimes" strike you?
If not that, then "Shamus Grimes" or the alternate spelling of "Seamus Grimes."

Hey, congrats, Greg! Awesome news! God does indeed bless in His time! As for Jhap, just resist the dark side. Don't listen to him. The dark side is compelling, but don't give in. Seriously, after all the help you gave me yesterday and today, I think Diquat Grimes is a much cooler sounding name. And it's unique.  And if you name him Jhap, no one will actually know that's a two syllable name. They'll wonder if the J or the H is silent, kind of like the names Phred, or Geoff. What's up with those?

Well since you sold me a Texas Hunter feeder, how about Hunter? Definitely not "Texas".
Congratulations, as Seinfeld said you slipped one past the goalie.

I wanted to name our son, Jaggar. It was in the book under Indian names. Couldn't get the wife to go for it. She knows she made a mistake now though.
Greg, you take it. Jaggar Grimes.
Me thinks it's time to start a PM thread to blow up Grimes' blackberry.

Way to go, Greg and Mrs.
Cant wait to read your post welcoming Earp into the world. We need a WR while he is still wet. You and Wyatt remember, "he is not a toy".

keep em coming, good start. Yes Seinfeld is the best. I have used slip one past the goalie a couple of times. Diquat is kinda catchy. Diquat makes things happen and is pretty powerful so that works well- I'll pass it by Wendy Todd and see it it holds.  Jaggar would be a fit Sunil since Wyatt middle name is Wolf (wendy maiden name) we woudl have the vicious animal family. Seriously thanks for letting me share the news.

Greg, Can't really give you a good name but my given name is Larry and I can tell you this, never ever name a kid after one of the "Three Stooges". That comes form experience.
In Dog Beers, I've had one.

Simpson's fans would remember Frank Grimes.
Does the name Pavlov ring a bell?

You've gotten some very imaginitive suggestions, Greg, so I know your head is spinning with the possibilities. But I must say that it's good to know you have managed to filter through the "noise" and see full scope of merit to naming him Diquat. Good work. And if that doesn't sit well with momma, then I have to throw my endorsement over to Busta.

I've always liked the name Joe, Joseph Charles Grimes would sound good, but I am biased because he would have my initials too. Glad to hear you have been twice blessed Greg. This coming Christmas the wife and I were supposed to be blessed for the second time as well but we suffered a miscarry. We were pretty lumped up over it for a few days but nature has it's own plans and we are merely passengers on this ride. Congrats again and the very best to you and your family.

Well, of course with my birthday being December 1, it seems to make even more sense that you would go with MY suggestion!

Greg, great news and take care of Wendy.
Having been tagged with the middle name of Zeno, I can tell you NO WEIRD NAMES.
