I have recently gotten some very nice snail mail from various folks (you know who you are) and the other day I received a letter from a pal who suggested I/we name the baby Trace. Remember, we don't know the baby's gender so we are thinking about options for both right now, even if Clint's grandma thinks it is a boy.
Anyway, my friend said she thought Trace Rockwell sounds tough like a cowboy and rugged but also funky enough to be a surfer or artist. I would say that these things are all true, but the first thing that came to my mind was one of the Palins. Isn't Trace the eldest of the Palin children? I casually mentioned the name to Clint one night after dinner and he said, "tres?" Pointing to himself and then me, he said, "like uno, dos, tres?" and burst out laughing. It was truly an entertaining parent-to-be moment and no, I don't think Trace or Tres will be on the baby name short list.... But keep the ideas coming!
