two names
i feel like i am going to have a girl...
does that mean anything?
chris wants a boy but i have told him that i have a feeling we might be having a girl. just to ease the surprise if we do, in fact have a precious little girl.
since i have been so lax in updating this diary, i doubt i have any faithful readers anymore, but by the slim chance that i do, please let me know what you think on this next topic...
i have decided on these two names for a girl (see the girlie-thing showing up again???)
* amelia
* annmarie (or annemarie, i cannot decide on the spelling)
i have not come up with middle names to go with them, but i still like grace and mae for middle names. (probably amelia mae or annmarie grace).
the very sad thing is that i have come up with a plethora of other names i love for a girl, but because of their associations i cannot (or will not) use them.
i think camille is absolutely beautiful. but i have a cousin named camilla. that�s just too close. (not to mention hurricane camille... i guess i don�t want her growing up thinking she was named after a horrible storm that killed people).
i love the name phoebe. but i don�t want people to think of that character on friends. she�s probably my favorite character on that show, but come on. she�s a bit ditzy.
i won�t bore you with my other non-usable choices. but i will let you know this. between my mother and i, i am surprised we can find a suitable name at all. everyone i mention she says, �oh no! that�s the name of that horrid little girl of so-and-so�s! you don�t want your child having the same name as her!!�
and every one she mentions i exclaim, �that sounds too little girlie.� or �that sounds too grown-up.�
i want a name that suits a little girl as well as a grown woman.
i think amelia and annmarie both fit.
so, leave me a note, or email me and let me know what you think. suggestions please!!!
**************************
chris has been the most wonderful husband in the world for the past three weeks. i cannot even describe how happy i am with him right now.
when i think back to the time when we were having so many problems, i wonder how i got through it without leaving him. because he now has proven that he can be a good husband and human being.
i hope i don�t have to eat my words one day.

tell me i'm beautiful...
