DD: Kennedy Faith [nb]our beautiful Kennedy Faith Byrne
the nursery
We knew before Kennedy was born that we were having a girl, so that gave us plenty of time to choose a name for her! We decided on her middle name of Faith because it is one of the many virtues we want to instill in her as she grows up. Her first name, Kennedy, took us until the time she was born to decide on. Bryan and I made a list of a couple names we both liked and decided to wait to see her until we chose, and when she was born, we both decided she looked like a Kennedy!
Life as a new parent is definitely tiring, but oh so rewarding! Luckily, Kennedy is a pretty good sleeper! She usually wakes up twice a night around 12-1 and around 4 and after her 4am feeding normally sleeps til 6:30 or 7! We were shocked, and it has been like this since she was about a week old! Decorating the nursery was so much fun! Bryan did all the painting and picking out the bedding and crib was definitely the most fun part! We chose certain colors because when Kennedy gets older, it will be easy to transition from a nursery to an older child's room.

Ezra's name was chosen to honor Matthias' father with the same name. Lukas came from Ana's grandfather. Ana & Matthias decided to keep the baby's sex a surprise until the end, Matthias was so happy when he found out they had a son. Ana and Matthias are adjusting well to the life of being a parent. Ana is very mothering and Matthias loves to take care of both of them. Photos

DD: Eve Sophia [nb]Chloe and Eve:The nursery:
David and Chloe chose the name Eve Sophia for the meanings, "to live" and "wisdom," since they both believed in living with wisdom. They decided to find out the sex of the baby before the birth, so they could have a name picked out ahead of time.

AD: Ludmilla Johanna "Milla" [from Russia] [nb]*You have one reward point! - Using it to ignore name rules. Thanks ;)Sam and Daniel were a bit indecisive about adopting from their own coutry or from abroad. Ultimately, they chose to adopt a baby from Russia! Sam now says it was fate that led Milla to them. They were told by the phone that they would be adopting a baby girl. Her name was Ludmilla Volkov - it just so happens that Ludmilla is one of the main characters in one of Sam's favourite books. So they decided to keep her first name and gave her Sam's mother's name, Johanna, as a middle name. Most of the times, Ludmilla becomes Milla or Milly.Sam and Danny are loving the experience of being parents - even though neither of them can remember the last good night of sleep they had. Milla is a really active baby and the whole family loves her - her uncle Jon and "auntie" Gina almost fight over who's turn is it to give Ludmilla her bottle. It was Jon, Sam's brother, who raised the question: what would the baby call them as she got older? It would be a little confusing for her to call "dad" and two people come running. So they established Danny is "daddy" and Sam is "papa".As soon as Daniel heard they were adopting a baby girl he went on a decorating frenzy and filled Milla's nursery with pink and butterflies, much to Sam's dismay. But as Dan points out, Milla seems to like her room, and that's what matters!
Daniel playing with Milla!
Milla's oh-so-pink nursery!
