Top 2 Tuesday

Girl:
When I was little I loved Emily Elizabeth{no meaning}, then as a teenager I liked Anna Grace{My grandma, mom, Josh's grandma, & Josh's mom have a form of "An" and I love the name Grace!}
I don't like Emily Elizabeth now because I think of Clifford -ha! NO OFFENSE!
I still love, love, love Anna Grace - but, Josh's Aunt had a little girl last April and named her JoAnna Grace. SO, I can't be a "name stealer" {even though I totally thought of that name when I was like 15 - ha!}

Josh picked out the name Kaidence, I was a little "iffy" at first. But, I love her name! Of course, Josh is a drummer so that played a big role in him chosing that name! Cadence is becoming very popular, so we decided to spell it differently and I like monogrammed 'K's more than 'C's -ha!
Her middle name is Ashlen. I picked it because of my first name 'Ashley' & Josh's middle name 'Allen'! I think it goes together nicely! =)

Now, onto my other names!
Girls - Josh's favorite song is Layla - so he likes that name!
I really want a double-named daughter, though. I love Bayleigh Grace!

Boys - We have pretty much settled on Carter Garrison.
Carter is Josh's favorite drummer's name - Carter Beauford from DMB!
My dad's name was Gary Wayne - I want to have some form of his name, so we both liked Garrison! :)




I have a file on my computer 'babynames'! I love thinking of names, like I am a little obsessed.
So, here's a list of some of my names. Just in case God wants us to be like my favorite family The Duggars! :)
Girls:
McKenzy
Annsley
Anna-Kate
Presleigh
Leighton

Boys:
Asher - loooooove!
Grant
Jackson
Reid
Parker

Great name choices. I love so many of them. Its funny how everyone has there fav names and then you hear other peoples names and your like "I've always known that name, it was never in my top ten but for some reason I like it more now".

All great names.
