Smarter.

Ollie says I'm just like Homer Simpson, except a bit smarter. Could be worse, I guess...

More on names.

Yesterday's Sunday Herald-Sun. There were 17 babies featured. Take a deep breath... the list included:

• Sydnee
• Maddison
• Mitchall (no, I didn't get it wrong, that's how they spelled it)
• Mikayla (again)
• Morgan
• Hudson
• Eden
• Sienna

Names again.

And speaking of names (pay attention), I've trained my sons to answer to Brayden and Jayden. I'm less sure about the girls; I tried Krystle and Chardonnay but they don't have the same oomph. Also, of course, they don't rhyme. Suggestions?

Names

Sunday's Herald-Sun has a section towards the back where each week they feature a dozen of so babies. A little photo of each one, a couple of sentences. My kids and I are unhealthily interested in this; it's a little family ritual we've developed over the last couple of months.

It's the names of the babies that are fun. This week, for example, we found a Jaxon and a Mikayla. Bullseye!
