There'll Be No More Hiding It

On Sunday, a friend of mine told me in Relief Society, "Today is the first day you've actually looked pregnant." And it's funny, because just the night before Aaron and I had come to the same conclusion. So I guess there's no more hiding it. Not that I really was hiding it or anything, just when I got dressed you couldn't really tell. And now you can. I'm 20 weeks today. Getting half way on the sly isn't too bad, especially for the third pregnancy, right?

I've been spending a lot of time on a site called nameberry.com and this is what comes up when I search my current favorite name Adelia.

ADELIA

Gender: F
Origin: Variation of ADELAIDE (which is German)
Meaning: "noble, nobility"


Much more accessible and rarely used form, worth consideration.

And best of all, it gives a chart of the name's popularity and Adelia hasn't been in the top 1000 baby names since 1930. Perfect! That means no one is using it.
 
I've already gotten Lincoln to the point where if I say, "Lincoln, what's your sister's name?" Eight times out of ten he will say, "Del-ya". The "l" in "Del" actually comes out sounding more like a "w". It's so cute to hear him say it. So really the only person I have left to convince is Aaron. And every time I ask him about it he says he hasn't heard anything he likes better yet. So the odds are in my favor. I guess we'll see what happens.
