23 Weeks. Gotta love bathroom mirror shots. Ok honestly, they gross me out too. Sorry. Until I get a full length mirror, you're gonna have to deal with them.
I have been clearing out things in our closets to make more room for the baby, as well as to prepare for a potential move this summer. Here are some of the cute clothes. I always forget how tiny little babies are.
I LOVE the hand-covered jammies/shirts/onesies. They totally encompass everything newborn. Had I discovered them before Story was born, it would have spared her some scratches on her face in her first precious weeks of life.
The below outfit was a gift from my friend, Kirsten, who I saw over Christmas break. Kirsten is so thoughtful and has always been a good gift-giver. I could learn a lesson or two from her.
Story made me a queen today. Thanks, Stor.
She also loves using my phone to take pictures.
Now onto a name: I think we are gonna need help this time around. So I would love to hear any suggestions from all of you. I like unique names, hence Story. Here is a list of names I (not we) like:
Isla
Liv
Everly
Harper
Scout (Luke WILL NOT do this one. Makes me so mad)
Rowan
Scarlett
Echo? That might be too much with Story
Neve (Until it reminded me of Neville from iCarly)
I'm sure there have been more, but that is all I can remember for now. Anyway, I would love hearing any suggestions you have. Please share :)

I love Scarlett. Harper is getting really popular lately. I have heard it a couple times. And you are so tiny!
I love Talulah. But Dave WOULD NOT let me use it. So, I pass it to you.
Okay, are we the same person, Riss??
I absolutely LOVE the names Isla, Harper, & Scout. Why won't Luke do Scout?? Story & Scout!!! So cute!!! I'm also obsessed with Tallulah right now, but Blake does not like it :( I don't care tho... if we have another girl, I'm writing it on the birth certificate--HA!
Not really a fan of Echo--sorry... Rowan and Scarlett are really pretty, too. Picking a middle name shouldn't be too hard since you have so many beautiful ones to choose from! Keep me posted! You look beautiful, girl! xoxo miss you!
I read somewhere of a little girl named Loie with the two dot things over the o. So it was pronounced Low-ee. I think it's actually a french name... like dancer or something? An artist? Maybe not. I don't know. But it was the first I'd heard it, so there you go.
I'm also not a fan of Echo... might as well name her Shout. Or Cave. Or Canyon. Or Dolphin. Sorry, pal.
Scarlett doesn't strike me as unique.
I know a little boy named Harper.
I'm sure you'll come up with something! Good luck to you and yours!
*a dancer.
First of all, LOVE the tiny bump. You always have this prefect bump and therefore I am jealous. As for names, I think Isla is so cute and definitely a Marissa kind of name! 2nd even though Harper is popular, I am a fan of it! and Scout, I know a girl in my stake that named her baby girl that! Spence says his favorite is Echo. He thinks it sounds cool. So those are my votes! And if you really get crazy, you can always name her Erin. Just throwing it out there.
Congrats you two! We are so excited! I love the name's Harper, Rowan and Echo! Especially love Echo!
Isla
Liv
Everly
Harper
Scout (Luke WILL NOT do this one. Makes me so mad)
Rowan
Scarlett
Echo? That might be too much with Story
Neve (Until it reminded me of Neville from iCarly)
Ok I like Liv, Everly and Neve. I don't think of Neville and don't think it will be that popular for long. Rowan reminds me of Rowanda and Scarlette gone with the wind. I"m with Luke on Scout sorry.
Novel. Story and Novel. HAHAHAHA or let's get real clever...Fable or Tale...ahahhaa actually...I kinda like Fable when I say it aloud. We can call her Fay Fay...Storylicious and Fay Fay!
You're welcome.
I like Everly. (Zach just rolled his eyes at me!) He thinks you should combine your names. Either Luma or Salu. I just didn't know you were as big of a To Kill a Mockingbird fan as me(Scout or Harper). Nice list. You're brave. We went with the "don't tell anyone until you've decided, so they can't tell you how horrible or dumb your name choice is, and therefore ruin it for you for all time" method.
I like Neve as I mentioned before. Liv is OK. Isla is growing on me more.
One name similar to Neve but with a twist - Maeve. I still like Rees too.
You can't do Rowan - it means "little red-haired one".
No to Scout, or Tallulah. I thought Demi Moore was nuts when she named her kids that.
From the family tree - here are some names that are unusual in our family:
Jewell
Sabra
Rispah (probably too much like "Riss")
Mozelle
Serena
Nevva
Missouri
Geneva
Feriby
India
Essie
Sybil
Emory (or Emery)
thought of another one too I've always liked - Jade.
I think a one word name would sound good with Poulter.
Jade Poulter
Neve Poulter
Maeve Poulter
Rees Poulter
Jewell Poulter
Liv Poulter
Aw, you don't need to learn any lessons! For the names: I think my top favorites are Neve, Liv and Scarlett. I like that Janice knows the meaning of Rowan! I also like Maeve. Where do those crazy names in your family tree come from?!
Forgot to write: You and that dress look so great!
Okay, from your friend who likes old lady names I might not be too helpful.
I like:
Harper and Rowan. I also love the name Emerson for a girl.
Good luck!
