DP still wont give me any ideas and OMG i just realised i am 30wks TODAY!..

He is still making jokes about names, the latest is Nyah Woodwood as these are 2 of his favourite places.
his uncle lives in woodwood and we go there every year for easter and Nyah is the town next door with the trotting track both are on the Murray and absolutely gorgeous and i love being there but come on.

I said i don't actually mind Nyah it's kinda a nice name, Nyah Grace would be ok.. nope Nyah Woodwood! give me a BREAK!

Hmm come on ladies what can i do now.. so sick of calling her #2.. i want to name this baby!

WE MIGHT HAVE FINALLY AGREED!

So last night we had a birthday dinner for our niece, SIL asked if we had picked names yet.
DP joked around that we wanted LUCY which is a name they like, they were like nooooo and i said NO thats not it but it WAS on my list until they said it's been on theirs for years (spoilt sports have 2 kids and don't plan on more but no-one can use their name).
So then out of nowhere DP says nah were thinking ZARA!
I didn't get my hopes up so waited til we got in the car.

Me: were you serious about Zara, do you like it
DP: Nods his head, yeah it's ok
Me: So you've just been giving me stupid UPSY DAISY etc etc just to be annoying
DP:

So we didn't end up 100% agreeing but he has told his sis we are thinking ZARA... is that a win for me?

Yay i might get my gorgeous girl ZARA GRACE!

[briggsy's girl]

take it as a win and start calling your bump Zara so that Ava learns her sister's name - he can't back out then!

think it's premature to change my signature? stuff it, will take it as a win, start calling her Zara and see if he corrects me!

We had DP's dad's birthday last night and everyone kept asking bout names, i kinda ignored it as didn't want to say anything and so over being asked and saying NO we can't choose.
So in the end MIL asked about 4 times so DP started joking again then he said Zara.

MIL: it's not Zara is it
DP: Yes it is Zara
ME: yes ZARA GRACE
MIL: oh *thinking face on*
BIL: whats wrong with Zara, i like it and Grace was a middle name we would have used
MIL: (after couple of minutes) actually i like it

First of all i don't care if MIL like it at all, Dad mentioned he didn't like Ava or as he said Ar-Vah... hmmm silly man, and i told him well it's not your baby i told DP's family the same story last night.

So DP seems to have made if offical i will have my gorgeous ZARA GRACE! to go with my AVA LILLY

Thanks everyone for your comments and suggestions, it has been greatly appreciated!

No we have A, L (me), M (dp) and Z... the alphabet is covered, we have a start, a middle and an end!
