2015 October Owls! | The chicks are hatching! *16 boys & 8 girls so far!*

She did. We told her Lucina's name when they came to the hospital, and she goes, "Oh, that's not THAT bad."

She refuses to call her Lucina, only Luci. Which is her nickname, but she's never even SAID Lucina's whole name, so I feel like she's trying to forget it's not just Luci because she doesn't like it as much.

Oh well. Not her kid. When I was pregnant, I told her she shouldn't get to say anything about picking bad names. Because she named me Hailey, which comes from the Old English term for someone who cleans up hay and crap from horse stalls!

Luckily we have had everyone really happy about lo's name! Oh's mum is over the moon we used her name.

Marianne is now 7 pounds 11 ounces so gaining really well,she's a little sweetheart melting our hearts despite the broken sleep lol.

I made this for Luci's one month on the 8th.

You made me laugh with the name thing... don't pay attention to your mom. Actually, I had never heard the name before and I love it! It sounds similar to my dd's name: Evelina.
Anyways, that one month pic is the sweetest thing! I loved it! (my ds hated tummy time as well lol)

Love the one month pic GP! I may have to do something like that for my little girl. Although im not the most creative person

We are home! Baby boy is 4 days old, he hates sleep but LOVES breastfeeding, is totally adorable and weighed 6lb 13oz on discharge today. Milk is in but I am working on building a better supply to see if he will sleep better when more satisfied. Kids are totally smitten as are we. Looking forward to having DH to help tonight and keep me company. Will read through properly and catch up on all the news plus write up our birth story. Cannot believe I got my VBAC

 

[Tink1o5]

GP I had to laugh, you've got my daughters name a little messed up...it's MacKinley rather than MacKinkey

I thought it was probably MacKinley, but you wrote MacKinkey in your post, and I was like, "Well, who am I to judge what people name their kids?" LOL

Omg did I? coukd you imagine the poor thing going around with a name like MacKinkey? Poor thing!

 

[Willow01]

Good luck Rainstorm!!

Hi girls. Labour was amazing, I dilated incredibly fast compared to last time. She was born before we could even realize what was going on. Her name is Evelina, she was born October 17th at 1:08pm. She weighed 6.87 oz and she's beautiful!
Her brother met her in the afternoon and he was ok with it, though he obviously wasn't thrilled, but it went much better than I expected.
She had a Little trouble latching but she's getting the hang of it. Thanks for all your support! I'll update once I'm home.
