Thanks for visiting. Oliver was born on April 9, 2008, and we'll be taking some time off to be with him and to figure out this whole parenting thing! Please visit past posts for reading material, and if you need to post an upcoming event, please do so in the comments section of this post. We'll be back in a few weeks. Thanks! Rebecca
Just a quick post to thank all of you for participating in our "Name Our Greener Baby" contest sponsored by Ecoist & Rag Trade. It was a lot of fun and gave us some great ideas. We are 2 weeks from our due date, and still have not decided on a name...however, we did decide on the contest winners!
1st Place: Annabelle B. for OLIVER
Prize: Ecoist bag & Rag Trade gift certificate
It's a name we hadn't thought of before and really made us think. Plus, we love the baby's predicted eco-passion: "Trees and plants as sources of nourishment and healing, as well as strength and longevity."
2nd Place: Shimona K. for CARSON
Prize: Ecoist bag
Naming a boy after Rachel Carson was a fantastic idea, and the name is great, too!
3rd Place: Sarah P. for AMATOR DEMETRIUS
Prize: Ecoist bag
She tells us that the words literally mean "Loves" "Mother Earth", and though I don't think it will actually be my son's name, we loved the creativity behind the submission!
Thanks again to everyone. We'll try to keep up with posting every once in a while, but we may need to take a semi-hiatus with the upcoming arrival!
