I’m busy working on getting my new website ready! I purchased a template through Bludomain.com that is normally $800 but, they’re running a sale right now and it’s only $400! I was so excited because I love good deals. I know a have a few photographers that read the blog looking for tips cause they’re starting out and I wanted to make sure you knew about this deal.

I asked around and a sale on templates usually means they’re coming out with a whole new line of templates soon. So, if you’re wanting the latest and greatest, you might want to wait until the new year!

I was a little nervous about doing the site all by myself but, it’s really easy! I’m so impressed. The only bummer is I’ve heard some negative things about their customer service…I’m hoping bludomain can prove that wrong. Cause I’m going to need their help!

I can’t wait to find out what this little one is so we can throw your names into the mix and see what new masterpiece we come up with! You have amazed me…I can’t believe how much time you put into my question! I love it! Having said that, how often do people let you have a say in naming their kid!??? LOL. Thank-you! Thank-you! Thank-you!

We hope to find out the sex on December 20th…what a great Christmas present! I’ll keep you posted but, until then, keep those names coming! Remember it has to pass all the different tests and Matt hasn’t seen any of them yet!

Have a wonderful day! It’s kinda gloomy here but I’m not letting it decide my mood for the day! I’m going to the mom’s group at our church. We meet every week to talk and pray about parenting and all that that means! I love it! Then, I have a friend coming over to teach me pre- and post-natal strengthening exercises…Lord knows, I need it! Then, I desperately need to get groceries! Aughhh…the life of a stay at home mom!!! It’s great!

Okay…I’ve had a couple of questions and I wanted to answer them as you continue to think about the perfect name for us!

Someone asked about my maiden name…YIKES! It was Albojer pronounced (elbow-her) not something I want to pass on to the next generation. Although I love my jewish heritage, I don’t need to prove it by passing on a name no one can pronounce! But, thank you for the suggestion…I love the sentiment!

There’s tons of names I love but, Matt doesn’t. Isn’t that the worst. For example: Marcus (Matt, knew a bully in his elementary school) or Justice (one of our very close friends used it) or Lincoln (also used by a close friend) or Sophia (used by someone in our church and I’m a big advocate for a unique name) or any name that ends in “ia” cause it’s to close to Adriah’s name!

I should also mention that I’m drawn to royal, regal, strong sounding names.

Maybe these hints will help us narrow it down! Thanks for playing!

In a couple of weeks I hope to find out if our baby is a boy or girl…I can’t wait! There are so many cool names out there but, Matt and I are really picky. Here’s our rules:

1. We both have to like the name.

2. We both have to like the meaning.

3. We both have to the flow of the first to second name.

4. The meanings have to compliment each other!

5. AND It has to sound good with our last name “Hedrick.”

This is no easy task! So, I thought to myself why not get some help? Any cool names with even cooler meanings? How cool would it be if I use the name you suggest!

Our first daughter names took us months…

Adriah Liberty Hedrick (meaning: Adriah “Love of Life”, Liberty “Freedom”)

Her name literally means “Love of life and freedom.” I still love it!
