Picking a name for a baby is the hardest thing to do. Agreeing with your hubby on this name... is even harder.
A few months ago I reviewed my favorite baby names.
I have a list of favorite baby names; Dear Husband has list of favorite baby names.
To date, all of our talks about names go like this:
Napmom: Have you thought about names lately?
Dear Husband: Yes, what about Claire or Chelsea?
Napmom: I don't like those too much. What about Darcy or Keely... Norah or Stella... I really like Keely.
Dear Husband: Nope. I don't like Keely at all. The others are so-so.
Napmom: Oh.
Repeat and wait one week.
Repeat and wait one week.
Repeat and wait one week.
Yesterday I sent him a new list of names.
Kassidy
Briley
Kennedy
Madigan (call her Maddy)
Breanna
Brianna
He is open to Briley, Breanna, and Brianna. I told him that this is good news becaause someone needed to come up with a new pool of names to choose from since we cannot mutually agree on ANY of the names in the current pool.
He laughed.
Baby Update: Went to the doc today. He said that he guesstimates that the baby weighs 6 lbs. 13 ozs. now and will be about 8.5 at birth. How many more weeks do we have untl this baby is born? :-)

I like Kassidy and Kennedy :) I also like Breanna. Did I tell you I have a student named Bryna (rhymes with grin-a) and I REALLY like her name :) 33 days to go! SO exciitng!!!
Gee whiz.. Seeing as Stephanie (my favorite) didn't make the list, I was all ready for Darcy Eliana and it looks like they have been eliminated.. Phooey!
My tops were Stella and now Kennedy. Will hang on til the end, hmmm?
I just had a conversation with Champ about baby names for our next (I'm not pregnant and we aren't trying anytime soon, but I LOVE talking about names, names of anything really!) anyway I tried Achilles and Ulysses (We already agreed on a girl's name like 4 years ago!), but he wasn't biting. Oh well, just means more names for me to dream up!
I love the name Briley! It's very original.I have never known anyone with that name, being that I have a very popular nam,e I tend to like more original names. But I still love Norah the most! Can't wait to hear the final pick, I'm so excited for you guys and can't wait to see your new baby girl!
Mrs. Bird - Bryna rhymes with Grin-a.... haha makes me laugh. I like that name too.
SusieQ - Can't name her Stephanie... that was Dana's girlfriend's name when we were in high school together. It is a very pretty name.
T.J. - I know, Stella is actually a family name... I love it too.
Jen - Briley is on top of the list for now. My only questions is... can I introduce my kids as, "Hi, these are my children Brody and Briley." Does it sound weird?
I don't think it's weird at all. I was actually thinking about that in my head and I thought it was cute. Now if they were twins it would be a whole another story lol.
