GIRL!!!!!!!
Mary-Grace Eloise M.
Mary - To honor dh's grandmother. She passed away in March of 09 after a long sad battle with Alzheimers. Dh credits his Catholic faith to her. And also Mary because the month we conceived was the first month I asked for our Blessed Mother's intercession. Remember, I'm a newbie Catholic...dong those sorts of things is new to me. ;)
Grace - Well, it is by God's grace that we have this little one.
Eloise - To honor my Nonnie. She was my great grandmother whom I loved dearly.
I've already gotten some funny looks from people when I have told them her name. But honestly, I don't care if people like it. I LOVE it! I don't mean to sound mean but it seems rude of people to do that. I've dreamed about the day I would name my little girl.
I've already been shopping for pink things today. :)
I'll post ultrasound pics as soon as dh gets home from work. I accidentally left them at his office. :(
Long overdue final update (such a good one)!

ReplyDeleteThank you all so much! I've been on cloud nine the last few days. I just can't believe this is actually happening. The more we say her name the more er move it!
ReplyDeleteDanya: I've been feeling her since 13 weeks. I love feeling all her little tickles. They get stronger everyday. I'm just waiting for that first big kick! :)
