5 Weeks and COUNTING!

Only FIVE more weeks until baby Kuba arrives!  Yippee!  

We have been calling him baby Kuba for months now.  It's a nickname for the name Jakob.

Anders name is very Swedish, and his second name is Anna's dads: Anders Bjorn.  The next baby will have my dad's name as a second name, so we wanted a Polish boys name to go with that.  The nurse at Anna's doctor's office is from Poland.  We asked her about good boy's names and she said there were not that many that translated well.  Except of course, for Jakob.  That name is very popular in Poland, and she especially loved the nickname, Kuba.  (The pronunciation for the name Jakob in Poland is YaKUB, hence the nickname Kuba) We've been calling the baby Kuba, and you know, it just might stick.  But then again, with us, you never know.
