At least he doesn’t call her Coco

Stop it!!! You’re making me want another one. Love her name, guys. You have done SO good *teary*

And Jon may still call her Coco yet. Or Chuck, for that matter. Our daughter was more commonly called Jazz or Pepper than her own name in her first few months….

Beautiful. She is just beautiful.

We keep calling Jason, our 3 week old, by his 1 year old cousin’s name, Ryan. Which is what we might have named him if my sister hadn’t picked the name first!

Oh well, at least we haven’t called him Emily yet. That’s his big sister’s name!

Marlo is lovely! Congrats again.

Thats funny, ya know thats not gonna be the last time that happens! Jerry..I mean Jon was so sure sounding, I sure chuckled!
Oh and by the way? she is gorgeous, what a content baby. Congrats to you all.

She’s beautiful!

I think that happens often when your second child is the same gender as the first. We have two boys, one two years and one four months. My poor husband still calls the little one his brother’s name from time to time. I probably stopped after the first month, but I did it several times in the hospital.

Marlo is so precious. Looks like she’s already alert. Congrats, again! ;o)

My BIL did that same thing when his daughter was born. Our oldest niece is named Ashley Marie. HIS daughter (who is 14 years younger than Ashley) is named Haley Marie. He was taking a video of her and said, “And there’s our Ashley Marie, born on December 20.” Close, but uh… Anyway, MARLO is beautiful (as is Leta).

Wow, she is a cutie…cant wait to see her and Leta in pics…

Just discovered the full screen option. Oh my God.

I wouldn’t get any sleep either for the wonder of it all.

Is this kid a beauty or what?

On another note: my ovaries need Advil cuz they’re aching something terrible.

Marlo Iris: I can haz broke the will of ur ovaries?

YES.

My brain is exhausted, but she is still the cutest thing I’ve seen all day. HELLLOOO MARRRLLOOOO.

Also, my captcha: “3:30 wakening”. An sign, perhaps?

I’m dying to know…is she more calm than Leta? Less screaming, more sleeping?

So beautiful! My youngest son’s biliruben was high too. Those three or four days of bloodwork are the worst! Hopefully, Marlo’s will go down soon.

Dear Dooce. She is so beautiful. And so calm and peaceful and alert.

And dont’ worry about the parental name disorder, my mum has it too… !

Bahaha…this is hilarious and at the same time so unbelievably sweet and endearing.
I imagine in about a month when we have our second son there will be many a parental name disorder. And it’s true, at least he didn’t call her Coco.
My youngest brother has definitely been called by the dog’s name. Poor kiddo.

Congratulations dears!

Love the video….especially at the end where Jon is trying to say (I think) ‘I did that on purpose…’ LOL!

–>She’s beautiful and I’m glad she looks like you and Jon and not Chuck! haha…

She is totally and wholly precious and beautiful. Job well done.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting baby pics and video for those of us who have had our last “fresh” baby, and whose family and friends appear to be done, too. A fresh baby to fall in love with keeps it all worthwhile, this life. Thank you for sharing yours with those of us who seem to be out of ‘em for the time being. That video makes me want to take serious, scary drugs and see if we can’t shake something out at almost 50. After that video, I think I could do it.

She’s precious. Thank you.

OMG, look what you guys made!!! I have three kids and sometimes forget just how magical it all is.

She’s just perfect.

dang it. The birth control you provided with the horror stories of the last few weeks of pregnancy has been overruled with these photos and video. dang it. One more year, I must wait one more year….

After watching this video I would get pregnant in a minute. Marlo is so amazed and amazing. She is beautiful, just like Leta. She looks pretty cute as a glow worm, too.

As for the names, my mom definitely calls us by each others name and has forever.

What a gorgeous little glow worm, sigh..

What a lovely laugh out loud moment. Welcome to having two kids – I get names wrong so often my 5 year old mocks my mistakes with “I know mom or whatever your name is.” Marlo is amazing. XO

we have just given up and combined our kids names so that whatever we say, it at least somewhat resembles the correct name of the kid we are addressing.

Marlo is beautiful, congrats.

He’ll get the last laugh. You’ll be doing this in no time. My girls just know to answer to whatever name I’m calling them as I look at them. And yeah, I’ve been known to call one of them “Trixie” on more than one occasion. Trixie, of course, is the dog.

She’s beautiful. Congrats again.
