Old fashioned baby girl names that sound as if they are from a different decade are so precious. I love hearing all the vintage names that my patients choose. Some better than others, but all are so endearing in their own way. Choosing a name for our child is an honor, and we shouldn't take it lightly. I've always loved old names, especially for girls. Do you have an endeared family member that you would like to carry on their legacy by naming your baby an heirloom name?
I, for one, battled with my husband to name my daughter after my grandmother, Dixie Veda. I know it's a bit unique, but I loved it all the same. It sounded like a Movie Star from the roaring twenties. Would you believe my grandfather's name was Dorsey Dixon? Not as charming as Dixie but try out Dorsey and Dixie. Haha, Not the best but it's true.
I digress, You are here for the names cause you need a name before you go into labor. By the way, if you are not sure how to distinguish real labor read this post right here!

Here's what Im super excited about right now for the new year. LEARNING MY STUPID SLR CAMERA!! I truly want to be able to take better pics of my kids. I used to rock my camera. Mike bought me a new one and I can't get it right. Apparently the trick to taking stellar pictures whether with an I phone or a SLR camera is lighting and technique. I'm so excited to share this bundle I found. Holy Moly it is so many resources wrapped up in one and it's super cheap. Check it out and let me know what you think.
