we finally decided on a name:
charlotte swann leach
swann was what came first. it's my middle name, my mom's and my grandmother's. rebecca swann, mom is dixie swann and megaw is jim mae "jimmie" swann... all southern names, huh? {i guess rebecca isn't so southern - but hey, it works...} so we knew that was going to be her middle name. so, swann+leach left us with little to choose from. there were several names that we loved but they didn't feel like 'her'. doesn't that sound so weird? but it's how both of us felt - not just me. then there were names we loved - but they didn't go with swann or leach. so they were nixed as well. we finally settled.
charlotte.
doesn't that name just bring a sweet smile to your face?! {of course, since we did pick it - it brings a smile to OUR face!}
her closet is filling up quickly.
we had several things from baby madeline. {when we thought that b. was a girl and people got us things....} of course, they're kind of 'off-season' since i was due in april with him - but hey, they're clothes!
then, julie + sydney + harper dropped off a truckload of girl clothes, blankets and bows that the girls have outgrown! i'm in the process of going through the first two tubs!! thank you SO MUCH. isn't it great to have mommy friends to share advice and hand-me-downs with? it's sort of how the mommy world goes 'round, right?
