The Details.: The Signs are Everywhere

Hello Friends!
I can't believe the summer is coming to an end... Just 2 more weeks and I'll be back at school, getting ready for another year! I hope to get a lot done during the rest of the time that I have. But it's going to be a lot of work seeing that this is what our little girl's room looks like right now...

YIKES! Speaking of our little girl, I think it's time we start calling her by her name!
If you know me, you know that I'm a planner. So Bobby and I have had names picked out for our baby for a lOoOoOng time! All we needed to do was find out if it would be the boy name or girl name we liked. So now that we know it's a little girl we can start calling her...

It was so easy to pick the name Greer! Bobby's Grandmother's name was Virginia Greer and his sister, Melissa's, name was Melissa Greer (before she took Wynns as her middle name)! We loved the name for our little girl and it was done. In case you're wondering, her middle name is Paisley which I have heard a few different times as a name and love that it adds a little creative flair! So, the weird thing is that I just knew that when we went to find out if we were having a boy or girl, it would be a girl. I didn't really let on, because I didn't want to jinx myself or be embarrassed if I was wrong. How did I know, you ask? Well, it was just a feeling but also, the signs were EVERYWHERE! Let me explain...

We started "shopping" online and created a registry on amazon.com pretty early on, just to kind of get a head start. Of course, we had boy things and girl things on our list. As we started shopping for strollers, I found one that I really liked, the Graco Alano in pink and black... in fact when I looked closer at the different color choices I noticed the actual pattern is called "Greer!" Ok, that's really funny!

Then, a few weeks went by and we finally spilled the beans to our families and put the news on our blog. After the news had been up on the blog for a while I went back to look at the post I had written and I noticed someone from Greer, SC had been on our blog... Um, ok. Kinda weird!

Then, I called my Mom-- who was heading to our family's cabin in NC for vacation-- to tell her about that and before I could get it out of my mouth she said, "I just turned the t.v. on at the cabin and there was a commercial for a car dealership in Greer!" I just couldn't help but laugh!

Then, last but not least, when we were in Destin for 4th of July weekend Bobby noticed the beach house around the corner from us had a sign on it... guess what it said?!?! "The Greers'"
