what's in a name?

   Of the many questions and emotions that run through a woman's head when she is expecting, one of the surprisingly difficult ones was deciding on a name.  It seems easy, I know.  Every little girl thinks about it while playing house, and every college girl thinks about it as they search for Mr. Right.  But as the dreams become a reality, the thought of another person living with a name I chose really stressed me out.  We decided to play it safe and simply go with a name taken from each side of our family.

   We agreed on William Randolph Pruitt.  Luke's first name is William, a name he inherited from his grandfather and Randolph, my dads first name (even though he went by Randy).  We are very pleased with his name.  It is simple, yet an all-around classic American name.

   On a side note, we had a bit of exciting news today!  I had been told the kitchen cabinets would not be ready for three more weeks; but as of today, they will be installed next Friday, August 10th!  I have also scheduled movers for Saturday, August 11th.  While there is much to do before we meet Will, my very first priority will be the nursery.  

   This is what the nursery looks like now.


   Sooner than later I can hang this airplane mobile

  
   and this adorable airplane print!


   Until tomorrow...
