So I know I am a slacker Blogger right now, and I have lots to update, but no motivation to do it any time soon. But I thought I needed to write this little story down.
Gunner and I were talking about the baby, and I was trying to let him feel it kick, he has yet to have enough patience to hold his hand still so he can feel it. Malia, has felt it quite a few times, and is always putting her hand on my belly and asking if he is kicking.
Anyway here is our conversation...
Gunner: "How did your baby get in your belly mama?"
Mom: "How do you think it got there?"
Gunner: "Did it climb in your belly button?"
Then he gets real close to my face and says:
"Did you eat your baby?"
We are also trying to figure out a name, and it is driving us crazy. We had Malia and Gunner picked out way before now. I hate calling it "the baby" and want him to have a name, we just can't decide.
Although, if you ask Gunner what the baby's name is he will say "Baby Gunner".
Here are a few of the names in the running, atleast for today.
Let us know what you think... we already know his middle name will be Bracken.
Bo
Gage
Ryder
Jagger
These are names that we kind of go back on, but if anyone has any cool names that would go with Malia and Gunner, let us know! We need help!

All of your names are very cute, good luck deciding! I really love the middle name!!
That made me laugh out loud when Gunner asked if you ate the baby!
Out of your list I like Gage the best. I also love Brandt, Braden or Brock (I know it's pretty close to your middle name). Good luck!
I love how he got conspiratorially closer when he asked you if you ate your baby! I love the toddler mind...
I love Gage! Though I thought for sure this boy would be Hunter so you could have the Gunner and the Hunter... Or maybe Major Tom? ...Now I'm just messin' with ya! :) Good luck with that!
Of the names on your list, I like Ryder the most. But I have a better one. On Monday I went down to Orem to watch a high school wrestling match with Colten. There was a stud wrestler there from Mountain Crest named Raider. I thought that was a pretty cool name. In fact, I even mentioned to Colten that it would be perfect for your baby - Raider Bracken McOmie.
Cute names! I love them all. Kids' minds are great. They make you see things in a whole new way. Let us know when you decide. I hope you are feeling good!
How fun. Gunner is certainly a crack up! The names all go well with the middle name. good luck figuring one out...
Okay, so that totally make me laugh that Gunner thought you ate the baby! You told him you did right?
Personally I like how Bo Bracken sound together. He almost wouldn't need your last name.
What a cute story! Gunner is hilarious! I really like ryder or Ryde! I can't wait to see another adorable little mcOmie boy! Luvs, Cari
That is a cute story about Gunner. I love all of the names you have listed. I can see why you're having a hard time deciding! We're going with Max for our little guy. I have a hard enough time deciding names for my out little babies so I'm afraid I'm not much help to you!
Good luck!
We still vote for Jagger! Though all of them would be great.
I love the story about Gunner. Just wait till they are 10, and ask harder questions about how it got there! I'm not ready for this!
I change my mind. I like Raider with Mikey!
That is so funny. Kids are smarter than we think. Hey, we are going private. I need your email. :)
I love the stories of the random comments of little ones. He is so cute. It was good to see you guys for a few minutes over New Year's. Good luck with the whole picking a name thing. We have issues at the Barlow household with that. It took 2 days for us to name Karlie. Maybe this one will have a name by the time she's one. I know exactly what you mean about being so far behind on the whole blogging thing and not having the motivation to update it. I'm in the same boat.
That story about Gunner is hilarious! Good luck with the naming... What ever happened to Archer? I thought I remember you discussing that as an option once, and it goes well with Gunner.
how about Crew
