Anyways, I was trying my hardest to convince Jeremy it was a "normal" name...but he wasn't buying it. (Understandable.) Well, he totally lucked out with my mom's visit. Because when I told her the name I wanted for a girl, she quickly said, "No. You can't name your child that. Just imagine the day when a boy will ask her out on a date and he calls her up and has to say: 'Claiborne, would you go out with me?' And then when his friends ask who he went out with he'd have to say 'Claiborne' and they would all think that is weird.
So needlesstosay, that will NOT be our child's name. :(
I have thought all along it was a boy, until today's doc visit. We got to hear the heartbeat for the first time, and Pearce was his little helper--she got to press the button to turn the machine on/off. The beat was strong and fast, and the doctor agreed with Pearce that she is having a little sister. So now, that's what I'm thinking too!
I scheduled the most important doctor's office visit (the 20 week ultrasound!!!) today, so we'll find out the real gender (hopefully) on August 27.

So so exited for you!! I like clairborne, but you will find something amazing to call her. :)
i like carmichael. since you asked.
congratulations. i can't wait for further maternal updates.
Congratulations! I remember when we were struggling with our girl names, and as soon as Tristan said the name Betsy, we knew that had to be her name. It sounded so sweet. Good luck at your next appointment!!
Yay! I'm so excited you made your announcement! I had to make sure to keep it under wraps until you were ready to share the news. :) Can't wait to find out what you're having!
I remember when we all thought Jennifer's baby would be Elise & Sterling kept calling her that even after she was named Scarlett. If it's a girl Pearce may always call her Clairborne :)
Yahoo!! We are seriously so excited for you. Curfew cousins are going to take the world on by storm. Watch out!!! Can't wait to hear what it is for sure!
how cute that P is so excited!! she can always call her claiborne, so you'll get the best of both worlds:) I am so excited for you! And can't wait to hear what you're having for sure!
p.s. I am brainstorming what to make for dinner tonight, and i'm going to look at all your recipe links...thanks for sharing all of those! I can tell you're a great cook. something i just am.... NOT. hahaha
boooo, go with claiborne. i think it's cool, hip, fun and i think it has the potential to be a very girly name :) And it's so adorable that Pearce already calls the baby that. Can;t wait to find out if it's a girl or boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! While you're counting down to your ultrasound, I'll be counting down to my delivery! :)
I like the name Claiborne! Goes well with Pearce. Congratulations on baby #2!!
