31 years, 31 weeks

June 17th, 2010 by admin

We celebrated my birthday this past week. We skipped selling at the market and instead dropped by an estate sale (I’ve always wanted to check one out) and lounged around in typical saturday manner. Garth photographed a wedding later in the day and Jack and I tagged along to Seville square even though it was hot hot hot!

And Ginger is now 31 weeks! This pregnancy has gone by so fast- I guess there’s more going on in our lives now and less time to ponder the passing of time. She’ll be here so soon and I don’t know what we even need to do to prepare to transition from one kid to two. Holy-waking-up-twice-as-much-at-night-moly. Oi. We are in for an adventure, I’m sure.

We are still working on a middle name for Ginger- and I’ll share the short list with all ya’ll. Feel free to chime in with your votes/suggestions.

Ginger (yeah, ginger ginger- we think it’s cool)
Darling
Gray (or Grey)
Hawker (would have been her first name if she were a boy- it’s my maiden name, so I want to include it somewhere)

If you ask Garth, he’ll say that Trouble is also on the list as a middle name contender- but it more certainly is not.

a big ol’ boat load of love friends,
elle

    I like Astaire or an old fashion name like Estell. I like Gray too. I’m sure it will be wonderful what ever you pick. Middle names are hard. Geesh names are hard, it’s alot of pressure.

    Love that Kat said Estelle. That’s Camden’s middle name. I like Grey. It just flows so nicely Ginger Grey…and definitely with an “e”. Have fun choosing.

    I really like Hawker the best of the choices.

    I’m sure you and Garth will do an amazing joh with both your kids. My sister was worried about that too what they do and it helps them a lot is they tag team especially when it comes to bed time. One of them starts Lexus with her routine while the other starts getting Kaylee down and then by the time Kaylee is settled Lexus is in bed and they can both say good night to her. You are looking amazing it’s nice to see a pregnancy picture this time around LOL with Jack you shared more of them. I know you have been busier this time around. I like Grey the best that’s really cool. You’ll pick something great I know you will.
