Her name is...

LUCY!

We wanted to share with everyone our future baby girl's name in case we haven't had a chance to tell you! We are very excited to meet little Lucy.

The story behind her name:
When I was in college I spent my summers working at Maumee Valley Country Day School's summer camp. At this camp I was responsible for running the preschool program. I absolutely loved the job and most of all loved the little 3, 4, and 5 year old campers. One summer we had a little brother and sisters attend from France for a few weeks. They were in town visiting their American grandparents and came to our camp during the day. The very first day I feel in love with "Lucy" who was the most petite, sweet, beautiful, gentle, french-speaking 4 year old you can imagine. At the end of her time with us, she even attempted to speak English to me when other children were not around. I remember saying to myself, "If we ever have a little girl I want to name her Lucy!" And now we are lucky enough to be able to do just that :)


Last night we had friends over and transformed the extra bedroom/office into a NURSERY! It was lots of fun and it looks great! We still haven't decided on bedding, paint colors, etc but we were able to arrange the furniture, etc. I'll post pictures soon...

Lucy - and the emphasis on the "sy" when you say it in French. Mimi can come up with a French middle name is you want. :) Take good care of yourself. love, mom

I love the name, I can picture her with dark brown hair and dark brown eyes.......it will be funny if I am wrong and she is fair skinned and light eyed.......but with her genes, I doubt it!! I've been shopping for Lucy already and have something for her from the Lily Store for her very first summer:)
