Long Time... New Post

Well.... originally I wanted to post on this blog every week... but you see how well that has turned out for me. I created this blog when I was on February school vacation and now it's April school vacation. Even though I get home from work at a decent hour with time to write a blog post, I am just so TIRED. I really really really want to be able to look back and remember, so I will try to be better!

Special thanks to our great friends, The Whites, for creating this for us. Krystal White Photography photographed our wedding and she is fabulous! She planned this photoshoot the very same day!

First of all, on March 10th at around 3:00 we learned that our little nugget is indeed what we have been thinking all along: a BOY! I wanted a girl (just because I KNOW girls...), but as it gets closer and closer I can't wait to meet our precious little boy. I know Chris is going to be a great dad to a boy and I am really hoping I will be a good mama. :)

From the beginning we had a girl's name picked out... Emerson. No questions there. We could not decide on a boy's name! Chris really wanted the baby and him to have the same initials, CRW, and I thought that was nice. (We decided if it was a boy, he would have Chris' middle name, Ryan and if it was a girl she would have mine, Amy)... Now we had to decide on a name that starts with "C' and boy was it difficult. I fought the "C" thing for a while... I really liked Gavin. But, I wanted Chris to be happy and thought maybe Carter or Carson. BUT Chris is a MAINAH at heart and has a wicked accent. So I couldn't stand the idea of our baby being called "CAH-TAH"... No, just no!

SOOOO...At the beginning of the pregnancy, Chris through out the name Chase as an option. I liked it, but thought it sounded too similar to Chandler, our nephew's name. So I said no. But we revisited it. Mostly because my friend Amy suggested it and when I heard it again, I realized it was perfect.
