First tub bath!
A sweet kiss from big sis
Daddy's girlsWe have given our second daughter a unique yet meaningful name, at least for us. But we realize it's going to be tough for her because it is not your typical name...and you can't find it in any of those baby books.
So...how did we come up with it? Airlie is the name of a beautiful little road in Wilmington, NC, one of our favorite places; we miss it dearly. The road is canopied by tall live oaks and pine trees draped in Spanish moss. There are picturesque farms and homes along the way. As you round the bend you can catch a glimpse of the azaleas and huge live oaks of Airlie Gardens through the brush and iron fencing. Soon you come into the light and you are looking out onto the beautiful waters of the intercoastal waterway. Then you catch a whiff of seafood as you near Dockside, a wonderful on the water restaurant. We loved it so much we had our engagement pictures made there.
You can check out the website hyperlinked above...or I suggest you just visit someday...it's beautiful...and a perfect name for our little peach pie!
Jane is a family name traced through both sides of the family!

Be sure to let us know when you hear the name used by someone else for the first time! My sister named her daughter Esme and it was completely new to us (comes from the title of a J.D. Salinger short story) and since we've met at least 3 little Esmes! Greta has not yet encountered another Greta, however.
