Kicker

Well, as you might recall, I took a long while to decide what to do about my last name after my wedding. My dear friend Fr. Joel suggested (jokingly?) that I try a combination name like "Kicker". Nick couldn't be convinced to change his name to something so silly, and, well, that wasn't the answer I settled on.

But now, there really is a Kicker in the family! First we named it"Izzy" after the Saint Paul ice cream shop that serves delicious little mini-scoops called "Izzies" on top of your primary flavor. At the time, that was about the size of the little one. But now that I'm really feeling his/her rambunctious movement, Kicker is the name we'll stick with for a while. Expect more news in April.
