Baby #2 - Colette Patricia Duff
We actually decided pretty quickly. Grant found the name asked me if I like it and I loved it. It instantly felt like her name. Then he picked 1 of 4 of the middle names that I liked that were family names. However, Grant gets to claim that he picked it all by himself since I picked Abby's name all by myself, which will mean baby number three will have to be a combined effort.
I had a lot of fun helping Abby make Mother's Day cards for the special grandmothers and grandmother figures in her life. Then she painted some more and had so much fun. I will have to make a note to paint more often. Also, doesn't she look so much like her dad! I love those two.

What an Awesome Day!
Today has been so awesome. I found out that Grant and I are having a healthy baby girl. I swore up and down to Grant that I knew it was a boy. haha. But we are very happy! When asked if Abby wanted a little sister or a little brother, she answered little sister every time. So it seems that she knew better than all of us. I'm pretending Grant agreed with me, which isn't completely true =). Now we just have to pick a name and Grant automatically hates the names I choose just because I got to pick Abby's name with really no input from him because I had it chosen since high school. So I will have to learn how to speak to his subconscious mind when he sleeps so he will like a name that I like to.
Another super awesome event in my day is that I graduated from USU with a BS in Family Life Studies. I took my last final and it feels awesome. I love saying that I am now an Aggie Alumni! I am looking forward to having time to clean my house and pick up some neglected hobbies like playing my piano and maybe some scrapbooking.
I am so grateful for my little family, Grant, Abby, and "Abby's little sister" and my family and extended family. A special thanks to my friends and neighbors who would watch Abby while Grant was working and I needed to study! I have been given so many blessings throughout these experiences and I would be ungrateful if I didn't thank my Heavenly Father for helping to guide me and comfort me through the hard times.
