Why we call the baby The Rice

For those readers who may not know why, or think we're strange for calling our baby The Rice, Kevin thought I better explain. It's really quite simple...
Very early on in my pregnancy, I was reading one of my many books, to see how big the baby was that week. When Kevin asked, I told him the baby was the size of a grain of rice. Hence the nickname The Rice was born and it has stuck. I suspect even after the baby is born and has an official name, we'll often refer to him/her as The Rice. Sure isn't the size of a grain of rice anymore....

Our "mushroom" (she was conceived in a dark little basement apartment) can't wait to meet "the rice"! Wishing you an easy birth! Post pics asap!

PS - Brian thinks it is ironic that you "granola eaters" are calling her/him rice and not granola.
