Reality Check

Well....we officially decided on the name! It's going to be

Elise AnnMarie Turner

Ryan has always loved the name Elise since I met him 11 years ago, and it has grown on me:-) Plus, I think we'll end up calling her Ellie for short. The AnnMarie is a combination of our mother's middle names. So it's exciting to have that finalized! I purchased Easter baskets for the kids this year that we can use over and over, and of course purchased one for Elise once we decided her name. I put them all on the mantle the other day, and it was quite a reality check! It freaked Ryan out completely (he's having a hard time getting used to three kids since there were only two in his family)! In fact he couldn't look at it for a little while...too overwhelming for him:-) He has since been okay with it....just one of those moments he will always remember!
