Saturday, June 27th, 2009And the name is..... Charlotte Rebecca Day!
Joe and I picked her name and revealed it to the party goers at our shower this afternoon. Charlotte is a name from my mom's side of the family and Rebecca is a name from Joe's side. Rebecca Day was the mother of William Herndon, Abraham Lincoln's law partner. Since we live in the land of Lincoln, we thought it only fitting we have an historical name for our little girl. We are very excited and looking forward to meeting her in just 5.5 short weeks.
I also want to put a special note out to Ames! She helped my mom throw the shower today and she went above and beyond! It was wonderful down to the little ducky shaped ice cubes she made for the drinks. She made the cake as well, two 3-D ducks!! One was pink and the other was yellow. They were a big hit. Thank you Amy, from the bottom of my heart, your love for your niece showed through all you did today. She is going to be one lucky girl to have family that loves her so!
PS- We're still a go on calling her Charlie, right? Cause I love that!
