About LinkBacksAll great names!!!
Dawn - I like the tribute. I have always felt that brings such a legacy to the circle of life
Jill - I have a tendency to be passive agressive (something I am working on) but I would simply mention that udring your long journey (do most people know about IVF?) that you and DH dreamed of someday having a baby Allison - which I love by the way. That way she will understand that it was something you knew about before she picked it.
As a teacher, I always felt bad for the kiddos with extremely awkward names or phonetically awkward names. I remember so of my precious gems whose awkward names took me a couple of weeks to get down. But y'all are doing great!!!!!! Keep up the great work ladies!

We have decided on Gabrielle Rae.
I really liked Gabrielle Grace, but DH has been waiting to have a boy so he could name him after his late father who died when he was a child. His father's name was Raymond, so we're going with Rae for the middle name.McKenna

ugh names.... I cannot even say we are close. DH is at least giving me "that's nice" when I have a suggestion.
For instance, I was pondering Katrinia - nick named: Trini (I thought it was pretty cute). Then DH goes, "Remember that big hurricane that like devistated all of New Orleans." I stared at him blankly then remembered. Guess you should not use that name after that big event, d@mn.
See DH does this with every name... ugh... we are still searching....Kim (35) & Dh (35)-

Oh Kim, I am so sorry to side with DH but as soon as I saw that name the storm was the first thing I thought of!! But that being said I love that name and your nick name was a really cute idea! Can you change the letters and having it pronounced different like "Katarina"? Though wasn't that an olympic winner or ice skater or something???

I agree!

FINALLY we have all three! Never thought I'd have to pick three in one shot
Tanner Aaron-Baby A (Aaron after my only brother) His initials will be TAG which DH isn't fond of, but it doesn't bother me and reminds be of Rachel's hot boyfriend on Friends
Brayden Robert-Baby B (Robert is my DH's middle name)
Dawson Michael-Baby C (Michael is my father's name)
I can't believe we are done with the back and forth of names..it seems like it took forever!

Nikki,
So here's my off-the-wall question. Do you have babies A,B and C identified by location already? Will the first one to be born be Tanner, then followed by Brayden and Dawson, or will you be able to tell from their location inside who's who and identify them that way? Just wondering..... OK and once they're born, how to keep them straight? Will you diaper them or clothe them differently, but ok how about when they're all in the tub together? /giggle/ I'm imagining 3 cute, squirmy, slippery nekkid little boys all wriggling in the soapy suds, then you lift them out, towel their cute little bodies off, then go OH POO which is which? No? Sorry I just have this very fun visual going right now.

Yeah, they start with whoever is closer to the cervix as A, and go from there.
A's head has pretty much been at my cervix the whole time so lately it feels like someone is going to fall out when I go to the bathroom! So yeah, we know who is who when they come out. Now..if they all look like their bro..which, my families genes tends to kick the arse of the other persons genes we are going to appear to have identical trips! (Which we don't) They will be wearing their bracelts for as long as they have to if it's too tough to tell once they are out. Or someone told me to put a spot of nail polish on their toes to tell them apart
I'm sure I will have a few stories once they are out and I have a chance to post
