We always knew the two names that we would be calling our baby if he was a boy. Patrick and James. There has also always been debate about the order in which these names would go. We decided we wanted to call him Patrick, but Michael was adamant about having James first. His Grandfather's name is James is a huge part of his life, practically raising him.
Michael decided on James Patrick, still calling him Patrick. For months I have had to explain this to people and why we were going with the middle name. I really didn't care, I just thought it would be easier the other way around for myself and Patrick! Not to mention the lectures I got about calling him by his middle name were quite annoying. Almost making me want to keep it James Patrick just to prove a point.
Last night, as we were shopping Michael casually mentions that he has changed his mind and now wants Patrick James. YESSSSS. No more explaining! Of course, he had to throw in the dig that he decided this after he talked to his Mom about it. REALLY!!!!! I have told him this for MONTHS and couldn't change his mind. How annoying!
Oh well, I guess I should just thank her since my life (And Patrick's) will now be much easier!
