Vacation

Thanks to the generosity of David's Mom, sisters, and my parents we were able to spend a weekend in San Diego this month. I can't even describe what a wonderful time we had, or how much we needed that break as a family. So I won't try....here's a bunch of pictures of our trip.

Here's the kids at the dolphin tank, that dolphin sat there for 5 minutes or so giving Eli kisses.

Me and Emma feeding the dolphins...so cool!

You would never know from the look on her face that this was one of Emma's favorite parts.

Me looking very pregnant at 28 weeks.

Eli at the Shamu show. We actually had to go to this show twice because even though we sat in the "soak zone" we didn't get wet at all. My kids were in tears because they wanted to get wet, so the second time we sat on the third row and we definitely got wet.

Really wet after the river ride...luckily they were already wet from the Shamu show.

Eli's a little freaked out by the giant walrus behind him.

Crib Bedding Poll

All right, so I've narrowed down my choices to 4 finalists. They're all from Wal-Mart because we get a discount there. :-) Anyway, take a look and tell me what your favorite is.

Judy Carter

David's aunt Judy passed away on Sunday. She was 59 years old and leaves behind a husband, children, grandchildren, and lots of friends and family who all love her and will miss her. I've only known her for about 8 years but you didn't have to know her for long to understand her generous nature and her absolute willingness to serve. Please keep the Carter family in your prayers.

Stumped

We are having the hardest time coming up with a name for this baby. I've been through 2 different baby name books and about 8 different baby name websites.

Nothing

Nada

Zip

It should not be this hard. David has taken to calling her "She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named". So before this name sticks or we just end up calling her baby, we need some name suggestions. So what fun, unusual (but not weird) girl names would you suggest?
