a flower

We've decided to name our sweet baby girl Poppy. Her middle name hasn't been finalized yet, but we have it narrowed down and will have it soon enough. When we were trying to come up with the perfect name, we knew that we wanted something that is unique and lively and that has a namesake (whether it was an interesting/dear person, a memorable place we had been to, or a beautiful part of nature). So Poppy she is.

What's she up to these days? Growing and wiggling! I'm told regularly "You've grown!!" by people who see me on a regular basis. I take it as a compliment. :) Poppy is kicking up a storm! It's been so much fun to be able to feel her moving around almost all the time. Mitch and I always wonder what she's doing...what's she thinking...does she have growing pains right now, too?

My mom was down a couple of weekends ago and helped us put the nursery together. It's so stinking sweet! Sometimes we just go sit in there and imagine what Poppy will be like and how much she will change our lives. I'll post pictures of it soon.
