I know that these updates are few and far in between. But that's what happens when you don't have internet.
Let's see... What's new to tell here. A lot really. Nov. 15th marked 16weeks pregnant. Nov. 8th I had my first Ultrasound. I'll probably have more due to C-Section the first time around. The Ultrasound revealed, quite clearly, that I'm having another little boy. So that's two boys. =D Mikey and I have decided on the name Gabriel Eric McCartney. So, looks like I'm going to have Xander and Gabriel, which is humorous.
Xander derives from Alexander meaning God Like.
---Well, new information has been brought to my attention, and Xander actually does not mean the above which is what Alexander means.
It used to say "See Alexander" when I looked up Xander, however, now it says this:
Xander is Greek and means Defender of Men.
But it also states that it is the short form of Alexander meaning the same thing. So in the four years since I named Xander, they have changed the meaning.
Mikhail (Xander's middle name) is Russian for Michael meaning Like God.
-So Xander's name literally means God Like, Like God.
But Alexander also represents Alexander the Great.
Michael representing the Archangel Michael
Then we have Gabriel Eric.
Gabriel is a Hebrew name and means God is my Strength (Ironic considering neither of us are Christian- Or really religious for that matter)
Eric is Scandinavian and means Always Ruler.
Gabriel represents the Archangel Gabriel.
Have we seen a trend here yet?
Haha. I just looked up my name for the humor and my name being Jessica (as they spell it - Though I spell it Jesicca) is Hebrew and means God Beholds. And the trend continues.
My middle name being Noelle (They'll spell it Noel) is French and means Born on Christmas Day, which we all know is not the case. Lol.
Then to throw Mikey's out there.
Michael being the Hebrew spelling and pronounciation means Like God.
But when spelt Micheal it is Celtic/Gaelic, but also meaning Like God.
Allen being an English name, and meaning Little Rock. So We have an interesting meaning to our families names. Lol. Thought that would be and interesting tid-bit of information to throw out there

Now for a bit of news about the devil that is Xander. Lol. Nov. 5th saw him at a Psychologists office, to be tested for ADHD. Well, we spoke to the Psychologist at this preliminary appointment, at the end of which he gave us some paperwork/questionaires for me to fill out, to the best of my ability, and as objectively as possible, about Xander's behavior.
We went back to the Psychologist on the 16th, where Xander was to be given the hands on testing. After looking over the questionaires, and filling them out, I've determined that this kids got a 99% chance of being ADHD. =( Not the best of news, but meh. Atleast now I'm pretty positive.
We go back one last time on the 29th to go over all of the results with the Psychologist. So. that's that. and walah. There's an update.
