Name Changes

Ok so after many many sleepless nights and prodding we are going to change the babies name.

She will be called Fiona-Ann Caoimhe Green.... many of you are probably wondering where the heck did I come up with that. Well Caoimhe is Irish Gaelic and shares the same root as Kevin. Its pronounced Kee-va. and its meaning is "gentleness, loveliness, grace". I wanted what will probably be our only biological child to have a part of Kevins name so I was lucky enough to be doing research and find this.

Kevin was very excited even tho hes still trying to figure out how that makes the sound Kee-va LOL

Oh well the Irish had it figured it out and so thats good enough for me.. and yes her actual first name will be Fiona-Ann. Which Moira is working very hard on learning. Tho it sounds more like Fema when she says it.

Just wanted to share the update... hope all is well with everyone
Hugs
Christin, Kevin Moira & Fiona-Ann

27 Weeks

Not that anything super exciting has happened... except that she is growing so fast its amazing. I still dont really have a prego belly just look fat lol.. but if I follow after my sisters I will just wake up one day and BAM uber pregnant.

I had my first Braxton -Hicks Contraction... that was a wee bit freaky... I was overly tired stressed and hungry so I think that helped bring that on. Didnt hurt but was most certainly odd. :) She has decided shes a night owl so sleep is a rare and elusive thing but I cat nap during the day and Moira is good at entertaining herself while I do. One more week and I will be in the third trimester which then her chances of survival go up to 80% so thats always nice to hear.

For those of you who dont know.. there was a rather large and scary accident on Kevin's location last week... the crane that moves the 46,000 pnd unit he works on broke. Which then dropped the unit... I was so glad to hear that everyone was ok. When Kevin got home he was telling me everyones story where they were etc... and I said well did you see it? Where were you when it happened...

He gave me the look and I realized he was being quiet because I was about to flip. He had been under it when it fell, and had to run and then dive out of the way. So I was freaking out, and am still having nightmares but Heavenly Father protected him and the rest of the crew, and so once again we are counting our blessings.

Tho he is out of work (well shopped) till the unit is fixed hes keeping a smile on his face. He got to leave yesterday morning for Edmonton, Alberta to drive the unit up to be fixed.. so is excited to be road tripping to somewhere new.

So I am sure he will have a story or two about his little adventure when he gets back which will hopefully be Fri or Sat.

Love you all
Christin, Kevin, Moira & Fiona
