OK I don't know about you, but deciding on a baby name has been a HUGE pain! Mark and I have such varying taste in names, and then, inevitably, we'd find a name we both loved and there would be an issue with it. For ex, we can't use any "B" names b/c his initials would be "BJ" (I'll let you figure out the issue with that). And then, we loved Kingsley for awhile, until we realized his name would be shortened to "King James." The list goes on and on with names that bit the dust for random reasons. Anyway, "Lincoln" has been one of my favorite names from the start, but Mark didn't L-O-V-E it. We wanted a name that's not super common, but that's not weird either. And it's been one of those names that grows on you (like "Sailer" did was us). I love it b/c if he wants to be a business man, then, it sounds honest and intelligent... if he wants to be a politician, well, I don't even have to say how cool and fitting that would be... and then, (fingers crossed) he joins the PGA tour, it can be shortened to "Linc" since he'd own the course. A girl can dream, can't she?? Anyway, that's the name and we're sticking with it!!
Just thought you might want to [finally] put a NAME with his face...
This is a sweet picture of my cute little man... LINCOLN PIERCE JAMES!!!
