Her name will be....

ABBIE GRACE. :)







We FINALLY decided on her name a few weeks ago (right before my 21 week ultrasound) but I haven't taken the time to post the beautiful name on here yet until tonight. I personally looked through hundreds and hundreds of names plus MANY websites with lists of names. David and I continued to narrow down our list and narrow down the list until we both decided we loved Abbie. :) I originally wanted to do an Irish name because of David's heritage but the names I liked were all a bit to different so we stuck with a more traditional name.

Abbie will have a second middle name that will be a family name but we are still deciding on that name. All of our children have family middle names... Dakota Kent (David's middle name), Emma Julieann (my name and my great-grandmother), Wyatt George (my beloved grandpa) David (David's, his dad's, and his grandpas).




Her first full name we'll be deciding at birth. We aren't going with Abigail. We each have a favorite so once we see her beautiful face I think we'll just know or if it's like with Wyatt's birth than David will know right away and it will take me oh 24 hours or so to decide. ;) The name I like is not a typical name used for Abbie but I like that about the name.

We are spelling the name with the "ie" to be like my name with the "ie." I've always liked Abbie but once we changed the spelling of it I liked it even more. I LOVE the name Grace and would have gladly used that for her first name but it wasn't David's favorite so to the middle it went. :) I've noticed that Grace seems to be a favorite among celebrities too but we didn't choose it for that reason. Grace has a special place in my heart and a great personal meaning for me. I'm so happy that I can give my little girl this beautiful middle name. :)



Her 21 weeks ultrasound went great and she was very active just kicking and moving all over the place. She is healthy and growing right on track. We really enjoyed her ultrasound and we could see her moving her arms and she even sucked her thumb. I can't wait to meet you Abbie Grace! :) I love you so much my sweet baby girl! :)
