On Craft Projects and Baby Names

Over the course of the week, we've been working on a craft project together, making name plaques for the girls' room. To finish them, we (meaning I) had to commit to a baby name. We've spent an inordinate amount of time discussing options that fall within the guidelines of my crazy rules, but we keep coming back to the same name over and over again.

Working Diligently

All Done!

    I just knew you were going to go with Beatrix. Not a bad choice but I like Brystol so much better!

    Love the name! Really beautiful! It would fit in with my rules too! (but I'll let you have it all to yourself!)
    Can't wait to meet her in person!

    I really LOVE that name, it is really cool. The nursery/big girl room has meshed together perfectly. You are doing such a great job preparing for Miss Brystol.

    Great name. It's so you. When I saw the O and L being painted, I thought for sure you went with Olivia. :) What a fun (and huge) decision!
