Welcome to BobbleHeadBaby

A few of you have asked for it and since it’s been an idea floating around in my brain for a while, I finally did it.  I’ve started a blog.  I have to confess that I’m not convinced I have too many interesting things to say, nor am I so self-deceived as to think my life fascinating enough to impress the masses.  However, I will soon have cute baby pictures to post, and I figure that’s worth something.  Right?

Since I don’t have any baby pictures yet, I thought I’d start out by explaining the name of the blog, BobbleHeadBaby.  For those of you who already know the story, thanks for bearing with me.  On the very day in August that I took the test and found out I was pregnant, Peter and I were sitting in our living room talking about what a child of ours might be like (ie. strong-willed, passionate, musical) and then discussing what he or she might look like.  It was at this very moment that Peter made the following observation: “Between your big head and my big head, it will be like giving birth to a bobblehead doll.”  After smacking him on the arm, I had to admit that was a distinct possibility, since both Peter and I have larger than average hat sizes.  Thus began our inside joke where we called the baby “Bob” for “Bobblehead”.  Actually, the word “Bob” has become interchangeable with “baby” in our house.

So that’s the story of BobbleHeadBaby.com.  I hope you enjoy it and please leave comments!

I will be posting a birth announcement here whenever the Bob arrives, so stay tuned!
