Henry it is!

HENRY JOSEPH AMBERSON
So we FINALLY decided on a name! You either love it or hate it. I love it but it's funny to watch people when we tell them that's his name. You either get "Oh! I love that name!" or "Oh...is that a...uh family name?" No I just like it. I like that it's a normal classic name but it's not overly popular. We also wanted his name to be the name he goes by. Henry means "ruler of the home" which may be the case when he gets here lol. Joseph was my grandfather's name on my dad's side. He died when I was young but I have fond memories of him and every time I smell a pipe, it reminds me of Grandpa.

Henry's bedding finally came in last week. I was SO excited. It had been on backorder and I was beginning to get worried that it wasn't going to make it in time. Luckily it made it and it looks GREAT! I love it so much and it was just what I was expecting. I couldn't wait to put it on and see what it looks like all put together. I need to take it all off and wash it now...you do wash the bumpers and quilt right? His room is almost finished I just need to get things hung on the walls, his mobile finished and hung, and curtains (I can't decide on a a valance or panels but more than likely they will be white).

  1. I LOVE IT! I have to love Joseph...it's Dreson's middle name. :) And I love Henry because it sounds like a "strong" name to me - strong in that he'll be a leader and as you said...a ruler. You know, you might start something...those classic names are making a come back!
