What's in a Name

It's a lot of pressure naming a child! 

We came up with lists and tossed around several options. We found that we were drawn to more classic names and Alice stuck out. We had several options when it came to middle names as well but Anne seemed to flow the best. 

I'm not that big on name meanings but I had a friend ask me what 'Alice' meant so I looked it up - and it made it even more perfect. 

 "Timberley" means 'Tall Ruler' - ruler like the Queen, not yardstick. ;)

 "Daniel" means 'God is my Judge'. 

"Alice" means 'Of the Nobility'. :)

So Alice Anne it was!

And she's our perfect little Princess.

Alice Update: She's been moved to NICU 2 and is doing really well!! She's awfully wiggly and seems to be growing by leaps and bounds. And we couldn't be more proud. ;)

Until next time.....

Naming is a lot of pressure. And you have to do it before you really get to know them. What if they turn out to be more of a Edward and you named them Biff?

Exactly!! Thankfully she's playing the Princess role to a T so I think we chose wisely. ;)
