Well, here it is: the list of names that both Kyle and I agree on. Some we love, some we're kinda on the fence about. But if you think you have a valid reason why one name is better or worse then the others, speak up! And if you don't know how one is pronounced or something, say something, and I'll try to help.

So, here's the list:
Abigail, Adriana, Alexandra, Arabella
Bonnie, Brook
Darcy
Eleanor, Eliana, Ellen
Grace
Helen
Isabell(a;e), Ivy
Jenna, Jocelyn
Kiera, Kyla, Kacy, Kady, Kylie
Laura, Lorelei
Madeline, Mary (Marie, etc), Margaret
Nancy
Olivia
Pamela
Rosaline, Rosalie
Victoria, Viola, Vitoria, Vivian
Zoey

Siblings...can't live with em...

...mostly cause they or you go off and get married. And hopefully when that happens, the married one moves out.

So, Tara called me today looking for quotes on families being forever, sisters, brothers, and siblings in general, and it got me thinking about stuff.

We have things in common, and we have individual talents. And even though we don't always get along, and we don't always like each other, we'll always love each other.

Now to brag. My siblings are people of many talents and achievements. Here's just the tip of the iceberg:

Mellisa does wonderful things with people's hair and is organized, which is good, cause she has three kids.
Annie is great at mixing paper, glue, pictures and quotes into scrapbooks, and at mixing ingredients into yummies.
Emily is great to have at your side when bargains are to be had and someone needs to be told to do something.
Ben is good for a laugh, and good at distracting little kids.
Will is a good salesman and a very good artist.
Tara is good at things that take patience and creativity, and can bake some awesome cookies.
And I am good at remembering random things about history, books, and arguments you and I had 5 years ago. I also read pretty darn fast (As can Tara and Annie).

As for the girls, we all have wonderfully nice singing voices. The boys might too, but I've never heard either sing, so I don't know.


Ask any of my siblings, and they'll tell you I have a temper. Ask me, and I'll tell you the same about them. It's something we all have in common with our parents.

We're also all pretty darn good people. And we personify the quote: 'Family is like fudge- mostly sweet with a couple nuts.' And we all like fudge, so it fits. But make sure Tara's doesn't have nuts, Mom.

I'm just doing this cause...

...well, my two awesomest sisters Annie and Tara started blogs, and I can't comment on theirs unless I have one. I think. Either way it goes, here's my blog. As I am at an boring part of life, I'm told blogging is a good waste of time.
