Your beautiful name!

Baby girl,

Your daddy and I have finally decided on your name! So many months of deliberating and marinating and researching to find the perfect name for you. We wanted something unique but classic and not too trendy, something meaningful to us, and of course beautiful enough to match a beautiful soul. We hope you that you will love it!

Liv - means gift of Life. After many doubts over the years I definitely feared I would never know the joy of being a parent. I have treasured these months of carrying you and I so look forward to the day when you're outside my belly. You are such a gift already! We can never express our profound gratitude that we are this blessed to get to be your parents. We spend all our days thinking about you, anticipating your arrival, and dreaming of what it will be like to hold you and know you. When you move inside me it takes my breath away at just how lucky I am...I just can't put it into words very well. So we find the meaning of your name to be so appropriate. You're a gift from God and we will always, always, thank Him for giving you to us.

Harper - we just love this name. It reminds me of peacefulness and gentleness. It is a bit trendy right now but I think it goes so well w/ your first name...it just flows so nicely.

Elisabeth - your great grandmother, who is in heaven now, was named Elizabeth. This is given to you to honor her memory but it also has a wonderful meaning. It means, God's Promise. You are so special to us. I also love how beautiful and timeless it is and it brings such a classic element to your name.

Liv Harper Elisabeth.

daddy and I call you Livvy. :)
