Makenzie Kaylynn

We have decided that our little muchkin on the way shall be named Makenzie Kaylynn. I love the name. I am so excited, and it feels so good to be able to give the baby that is growing inside of me a name. That way now when I talk to her I can call her by her name. I do talk to her all of the time. It is awesome. Josh really liked the name Makenzie. We won't tell our little princess to be that she is named after a hunting target. haha. and Kaylynn came from a road trip with my amazing sister. We were headed up the coast and stopped in Solvang. As we were eating dinner I saw this candle shop and it was called Kaylin's candles or something of the sort. I really liked the name A LOT. A few minutes later I liked it even more when I realized that it has special meaning behind it as well. Kay is my sister's middle name and Lynn is my mom's. So I am changing the spelling to Kaylynn. I love it love it love it.
I had thought that I had felt her move for a while, but wasn't sure. Everyone told me that it felt like a gas bubble but I never really paid attention to what they felt like in the past. Then someone told me that it feels like a little flutter in your stomach and that is exactly what I felt. As I was home with my family as I laid down at night I felt this weird feeling in my stomach and concluded that it must be little Makenzie stretching out, and the next morning she got the hang of it and I could feel her moving around a bunch. It is still a little surreal that something, rather someone is growing inside of me! So cool. This is where I feel like the guys miss out. Josh has yet to feel her move but I'm sure he will in the near future. She now moves around quite often, especially when I am sitting over the computer. I can hear her in my head, "Um excuse me mom, could you stop hunching over like that...I'm trying to relax here and not be cramped." Haha. I have also officially popped. I will post pictures soon! It is fun! Well that is the update I have now. I was just reminded that it is already 7 and we haven't yet eaten dinner. oops. back to my wifely duties and away from the computer I go. I shall write more later.
Please pray for little Makenzie as you think of her. That God's perfect plan would be carried out for her life! Love you all!
