Ambiguous....

{first, thank you to all your wonderful comments on my last post....I really appreciate your encouragement :) I agree, you never know what someone else is going through and how your story--no matter how big or small can help them....now on to this unrelated topic. lol}


I never thought that my children would have ambigious names

I haven't had names picked out since I was 5

It's a struggle to name someone.....it's for life!

When I named Kendall, I had NO clue that it was also a male name. I don't even know where the idea of her name really came from. 

But it fits, it's not too masculine, in fact I think it's more feminine than anything

Now, Ryleigh.....

she was originally NOT a Ryleigh

it was a choice of a middle name, but I couldn't decide {drew kept trying to push addison.}

We thought she would be a Lorelai up until the 31st {she was born on the 30th}

SO her name was changed at the last second. 

{charlotte/charly & brooke were also contenders}

Drew had more to do with her name than I did {so you can blame him if you don't like it. lol.}

Ryleigh Anne....{anne is also my middle name, ann is my mom & grandmas middle names--it had to be done :)} 

We chose to spell her name that way since it was more feminine. 

you would think...

she was first called a "he" when we went to get her blood drawn at like 3 days old

**sigh**

by the lady that did her paperwork! she knew the spelling and the middle name. grrrr....

the price you pay I guess. 

plus it doesn't help that our car seat is neutral {blue, purple, green, grey}

and our cover is grey/white/green BUT it has butterflies!!!

apparently girls can only wear pink or purple or they look like a boy.

we try to wear a headband to make sure people know....but still.

I'm pretty sure that she will be getting her ears pierced in about a month-after her first shots, just to add that extra --yes, girl....

but people will still call her a boy, they did with Kendall and Kyla --when they were wearing dresses!! 

whateves.

Her name fits her. She is beautiful.

and to the next person who calls her a he/him---I won't apologize for my dirty looks or attitude when I correct you ;)
