Sometimes nine months isn't enough time

The biggest news of the week has been the lack of news. As we lay our heads down each night we are not dreaming of sugerplums or elves or even the north pole no, we are ticking down a list of names suitable for a little girl. You see little girls are a short commodity in our family. The last one was 21 years ago... unless you count the Chicago relatives-- Miss Jena arrived about 18 years ago-- still it was eons ago- and finding a name, a perfect name is serious business.
Lest you think I am joking.. think about it.
The name must match the child, must work with the last name, be sweet enough for a little girl, but serious enough for a fortune 500 owner (we can dream right)-- The name must last a lifetime, must be able to be quickly strung into the ever popular "XXX do not touch" "XXX put that down now" "XXX turn of the TV and do your homework" And the name must have some sort of approval by your family or they will just resort into nicknames.
Yes a name is a very important thing--
Elizabeth, Emily, Abby, Hannah, Rebecca, Abigal, Madison, Gabrielle, Dannielle, Sydney, Madeline, Sara, Cloe, Carson, Kathrine, Melissa, Nicole, Keri, Maggie, Laurel....
