Patxi

Eli has named his baby brother "Patxi." (sounds like Pah-tchi). Pretty much since we first told him Mama had a baby inside her, he called the baby Patxi. He has been amazing in his consistency and insistence on this name also.

What if we name the baby "Joe?" Mama asks Eli.

Quizzical look.

"You mean baby Patxi?" Eli asks.

We are a bit worried about breaking the news to him when we tell him what the baby's real name will be (which we don't know yet, by the way!) It may just be easier to call the baby Patxi, which is the Basque form of Francis, in case you didn't know. It also happens to be in our baby name book....
