We talked about baby names a lot leading up to the big 20-week ultrasound. We read the lists of the 1000 most popular names according to Social Security Office, and honestly, some of the names.... I just scratch my head and think "Whaaaa?..." Anyways, picking THE ONE turned out to be fairly easy once we knew she was a she.
In any case, we've decided on our baby girl's name, which will be:
Katherine Anne
or for short:
Kate
Not Katie, Kathy or Kat. It's Katherine or Kate.
I've loved this name for as long as I can remember, CJ did not have any major objections, and actually came to love it as much as I do really quickly. Once we knew we were having a girl it was a pretty easy first choice. It is simple, classic, a REAL name. In my mind, Kate is a strong, independent, elegant girl. She's smart and creative, likes to laugh and makes friends easily. She is neither too prissy nor too boyish. Katherine or Kate, it just feels right. And it goes GREAT with our last name!!!
So in a few months we will proudly introduce our little Kate to all of you.
And since you can't have a post without a picture, here is a picture of the first baby gift we have received. Our Geneva friends Sam and Samantha brought this for us from one of their trips here. Too cute!
