The Middle Name

Leah's middle name, Haley, is my sister's name.  I wanted her middle name to be connected to my side of the family and I wanted it to mean something.  My middle name is my mother's name and I love it.  It means something to me; it connects me to my mother and my mother's side of the family.  Legally I have four names because I decided I didn't want to drop my middle name, nor did I want to drop my maiden name.  I wanted to give my baby my sister's name because I love my sister and I wanted my baby girl to grow up with a name that meant something to my side of the family.  Plus I just think it sounds nice. 

Aunt Haley came for a visit and brought books to read to Leah.

Leah enjoyed tummy time with Aunt Haley.

  1. Awwww, those pictures are so cute! It looks like Leah Haley was throwing up her hands and doing a dance after hearing some of "Matilda!" It's true, we did bond. And by the way, I'm still blown away by the fact that Haley is her middle name-thank you for the incredible honor. All my love to AA, BA, and LA.

Thank you for your comments. I love reading them. For those of you who know us personally, please use "AA" and "BA" in place of our names. Thank you!
