IT"S a GIRL!
We found out yesterday that #3 will be a girl! We are pretty excited. I am looking forward to getting Marley's old clothes out and seeing what I can still use!
Marley is really excited. She wanted Jack to be a girl. She even cried at his ultrasound when she found out he was a boy. She was much happier this time around.
The name we have picked out (for now) is ....
CALLIOPE RAE WILLIAMS
(Ca-lie-o-pee nickname Callie) --- Rae after Mac's grandpa Raymond Buckner
Most people have an vocal opinion about this name choice, but for now the only thing that will change is the middle name. I think having a girl named after the muse of epic poetry, the music maker on a riverboat & at Disneyland, and my favorite Mardi Gras parade (Muses) is very fitting. She won't know anything about New Orleans, but at least she will be connected to it in some way!
Only 3 months and 22 days to go!

Congratulations!! I'm very happy for you. I love little girls and it is so fun to reuse the cute clothes.
Mickelle,
I love the name, and I think it's rad that y'all are choosing names that have such nice stories behind them. And I swear I'm gonna call her "Ope!"
I need to get on the bandwagon with a good nickname for Jack..."Braveheart" has too many syllables.
love,
Susanna
P.S. I hope you're feeling alright.
Congratulations! It must be fun to dress up little girls! Hope we will get to see her!
Yay for little girls! I can't believe y'all already have a name picked out. We are always slackers in that department. Do you watch Grey's Anatomy? That's a character's name on there. Best wishes for your last 3 months!
Cute Cute Cute! Very cute to be different. And I love the shortened version - Callie. Very girly and fun.
Love it! (The name and the news)
