What's up with the name?

Recently I have discovered that the name Jackson is quite popular these days. It was only a few months ago when Travis come up with the name for our new baby boy. The one I had picked out just didn't do it for him, so after much consideration...or some would call it arguing...we agreed on the name Jackson Travis Kinley.

So last weekend I was working in the nursery at our church (granted this is a very large church) and I noticed that there were a total of 4 little boys under the age of 13 months with the name Jack. So, of course, I went home determined to find a new name for our baby. I would call Travis practically every hour with a new proposal, but he just wouldn't break. He really likes the name Jackson, regardless how popular it is getting. I still love the name, but just don't want my baby to become mixed up in a sea of Jack's, Jacks' or Jackson's. I'm sure every parent goes through this and if you don't end up with a very unusual name I guess you are just going to have to put up with the duplicates. I have thought more about his initials though, J.T., kind of cute huh?

Check out the new link I have to the left. This is my friend Meagan Gaines who is going to take my maternity pictures next month. She's awesome and I can't wait till y'all get to see them!!

Oh and just in case y'all were wondering, no the flooding down here is not anywhere near our house. We live in southwest Ft Worth, where it's a little more hilly, so the water just fills our pool, waters our lawn and runs off down the hill. In comparison to Casper, looks like the weather is nicer in Texas than in Wyoming. Somehow we switched this summer! :-)

Take care!
