Naming A Blog

I've wanted to start a blog for about a year. I thought it would be a great way to journal my life staying home with my now 3 year old Ava and our son Reid. Last March I left my job as an Account Executive while I was expecting Reid to return to life as a Stay at Home Mom. It's been a busy year and my friend Alison recently reminded me of my desire to start a blog when she told me about hers. She is expecting her first child in June!

So, last week I started this blog page, but when it came time to come up with a name I could not think of one that was not already in use. The only somewhat intelligent stimluation I get most days is a 5-10 minute game of Solitaire on the computer so I tried Solitaire Mom, it's taken. I think by a single Mom - guess that makes sense. Then I looked at something like MomSpace, duh of course that's taken. Then I thought about using the kids names, but felt it was too obvious. Instead I decided on Reidicals, because that's the nickname my husband has given our son and it seemed to be a great play on words. I am still putting together this blog at the moment but I hope to update it often.
