What's in a NAME

We narrowed our list of baby girl names down last night!! Nothing final, but a handful of names to go to the hospital with will suffice:). Of course all of you who read this (if any) are not fourtante enough (so sorry!) to have that list posted here. Our lips are sealed until baby girl Garcia enters this world and we name her in the privacy (ha!) of the delivery room with the doctor, nurses, etc! Then we will notify the family that's with us at the hospital and then to the world, via facebook and twitter! What a glourious day that will be! We can't wait to meet her and see who she looks like:).

I should note here that we have a few qualifications for naming our baby. First, it must sound good in English and in Spanish (the middle name doesn't have to translate to Spanish). Secondly, it must be unique and uncommon. I liked Avery, it's on the top 100 baby names list for 2009, Oscar liked Emma, it, too is on the top 100 baby names list for 2009. We both like Gabriella, and yes, since I'm telling you, it's on the top 100 baby names list for 2009 as well. All three are adorable names, but are too common for us to use.

Until her birth, we are enjoying each others company with movie nights, rock band parties, pre and post holiday parties, walks with Toki at Eisenhower park, sleeping in on weekends and holidays, and setting up the baby's room.

We love you, almost named, Baby Girl Garcia!
