Clue #6 - Baby Girl will have the only kid name in the Top 100 most popular baby names.
Clue #5 - Silas
will be the only one who has five letters in ALL three of his names
(first, middle, and last). However, baby girl will join her brothers in
having five letters in both the first and last name. :)
Clue #4 - Micah will be the only kid who shares a first initial with another member of the family.
Clue #3 - Elizabeth will continue to be the only one in the family whose first name begins with a vowel.
Clue #2 - Matt will continue to have the only first name in our family with a letter repeated consecutively. Clarification:
that means we will not be using a name that repeats a letter twice in a
row (like the 't' in Matt). So go ahead and cross out Emma, Isabella,
Charlotte, Addison, etc. This does NOT mean the name can't use the same
letter more than once, just that it won't appear twice in a row.
Clue #1 - Titus will maintain the status of having the least common name in our family. Clarification: that means baby girl's name will rank 315 or higher on the SSA's baby name list.

Baby #4, Clue #1
Back by popular demand... the NAME GAME!
If you've been around since Baby #1 (who will be SEVEN this summer!) then you know we like to keep the name a secret until the birth. But some of you (ahem, grandma) don't like waiting, so we do a little teaser by playing the name game!
To kick off the third trimester (where did the time go?), here is your first of seven clues. Will you be able to figure it out by the end? Can't wait to hear all your guesses. :)
As always, we begin with the SSA's list of the 1000 most popular baby names. Here's the 2013 list. Each clue will help you knock hundreds, then dozens, of names out of the running.
To summarize the theme of this game ~ we will be telling you something unique about each name in our family to help you figure out what Baby Girl (aka Indiana) might be called.
Clue #1 - Titus will maintain the status of having the least common name in our family.

Cruise
2014 is a big year for us... we both turn 30 and we celebrate our 10th anniversary. So we decided to take a little trip to commemorate!
At the airport...
On board the ship!
The "atrium"
Our port of call was Ensenada, Mexico...
...where there is a famous sea geyser, La Bufadora.

Snow, snow, and more snow!
We had a record snowfall for our area - almost a foot! We were swimming in it for days. The boys had fun trekking through it and building a fort.
