Well, as it turns out we have had Baby Girl's name picked out FOREVER. I really don't know why but we just always knew we would have two girls someday. When we picked Sophia's name, we had a few in consideration but once we started to say her name aloud, it was clear that Sophia is B-E-A-UTIFUL. Shortly after having Sophia, we fell in love with Baby Girl's name. To be honest, it comes from a silly little show that we are/were obsessed with called "Chuck". We recommend that you Netflix it because it's just so fun/cute/lovely. On the show, Chuck has a really awesome relationship with his sister. A sibling relationship that anyone would envy. And his sister is just adorable!
And so, the name of Baby Girl Elflein #2 will be...
Ellise "Ellie" Catherine Elflein
We always planned to simply call her Ellie but felt she needs a sophisticated name too. Maybe it's just the Jennifer/Jen and Kenneth/Ken in us. Sophia's middle name is Margaret - named after my maternal grandmother. Baby Girl's middle name will be Catherine - named after Ken's maternal grandmother.
The day after we found out her gender, we ordered her bedding. After we received it, we went right out to buy paint. I'll post pictures of the room as it comes along. We have a pretty high bar to live up to since we put so much effort into Soph's room, but I know this one will be just a beautiful.
Symptoms: Still feel overall great. Starting to have sinus congestion. I had this really badly with Soph so this is no surprise.
Cravings/Aversions: Fruit snacks please.
Sleep: As I get further along I've become more cognizant of sleeping on my side. I'm usually a back sleeper so this is making me somewhat uncomfortable.
Movement: All the time! It still feels like she is breech most of the time so her little kicks are downward. No biggie unless Mommy has to pee (which is most of the time) and she kicks my bladder.
Gender: Still a girl as far as we know.
Maternity Clothes: Most definitely.
Best moment this week: Sitting on the couch watching my belly dance around.
Next doctor appointment: January 14th U/S in Albuquerque and January 17th regular appointment.
Due Date: May 7, 2013
