If anyone "knows knows" me then I think it was silly to even ask me if we were going to find out the sex of the baby. I'm a planner and I tend to stress a little...okay more like a lot over the little things at times. There was absolutely no way that I was not going to find out. I needed to start thinking of names and boy was that an ordeal or what. Everybody and their mother has "called" a name already. Anyway, I also had the nursey to get ready. SO much to do in such a little time. Well, the time came to find out and we took the opportunity. Once we found out the baby was a girl it was on to names and paint colors. Hal and I decided to both go through the baby name book individually and make a list of names we liked. After that we circled the ones we had in common. Being a teacher, my list was not too long. If you are a teacher then you will understand :) We finally decided on a name and slowly started sharing. It's amazing how many Addison's I have met and heard about since we made it official.
Now, I know some people are all about nicknames but I really love the name Addison, so I don't really see myself calling her Addie. I don't want to say the words "never" but I just really love the name Addison so I will call her that. Several people have already started calling her Addie and I don't dislike it so I won't yell at them, but it's not really her name:) Anyway, it's not a big deal. When she's older and has her own opinion then we will let her tell us what she likes to be called. Now on to paint colors...
