They'd better not be or her big brothers will have a lot to say about it, and not just with their mouths I'd guess.

Anyway, I think I'd better just wait and see if my feelings are right before I start worrying about stuff that hasn't even happened yet (and in all likelihood wont anyway) lol.

Yay! I think a girl growing up in your household will have an awesome time and you're a great role model!

Thanks limey. I'm glad you think that. I doubt myself a lot lately, so something positive is very nice to hear. xxx

I'm doubting that Cellaria will make the cut, but wouldn't it be cool if you actually named her Aliantha?

Thanks guys. We already have a name for this one, and it's not Aliantha. hehe

Eva Claire

Claire is for my cousin who died when we were just in our 20's after a riding accident, and Eva just because it's a nice classic name that should carry her through life without too many troubles.

Oh, and I think Aden at least is worried about this little girl being a spoiled brat who's going to cramp his style, which may in part be true, but with any luck she'll have a really sweet nature like Max which will take the edge off the other stuff.

Max just can't wait for her to arrive.

Mav is just taking it on the chin (which is a really funny phrase to have come to mind since he's sporting a couple of stitches there after a head clash at footy last night) and being fairly non committal about it all, which is his usual style so he doesn't have to eat his words later.

I don't know Bri. I'm sure she will soon though.

Are you pronouncing it "ay-vah," or "ee-vah?"

How old is Aden now? I was thinking he'd be out of the house before this little girl even gets old enough to be a real brat, but maybe I've misremembered his age...
