The "Goo" Thing ...

So I was thinking I should probably explain the "Goo" thing ... When I was pregnant, T and I couldn't agree on a boy's name to save our lives. The baby even gave us two extra weeks to think about it, but he still didn't have a name until he made his appearance at the hospital. So in the meantime, we had to refer to him as something - and Mr. Magoo it was. Mr. Magoo got shortened to "Magoo" - and later just "Goo." He's also sometimes "Goofers" and "Goofy" - both very appropriate names for our funny little guy.


On a side note, I totally horrified two of my co-workers before he was born. Here's how it went:

Them: So does the baby have a name yet?
Me: No, we really can't decide. For now, he's Mr. Magoo.
Them: (totally shocked and appalled - in all seriousness) *gasp* Don't name him that!

I laughed all the way home.
