Norah Genevieve

Have I ever told you how much I love Norah's middle name? Love it. She's named after my paternal grandma, Genevieve (Granny Gen), who not only has a beautiful name, but is a beautiful person to boot.

This picture was taken at my cousin Shannon's wedding in October. I cannot describe what it's like to have my perfect little baby held by her great grandmother and namesake. These are the kind of moments that make life almost incomprehensibly amazing. I grew up adoring my Granny and to have my own baby share her name...it's just incredible to me.


I already know that Norah is going to live up to her name too. She's funny and smart and beautiful, just like Granny Gen.

I couldn't agree more. Granny has taken me in as if I were one of her own!

Norah is getting cuter by the day. Can you even stand it?

OH what a good picture. one she'll probably cherish as she becomes old enough to realize how cool it is to have a meaning to your name.
i was named after my grandmother who i never met, but everyone has always praised.
fingers crossed i won't be the one to curse the name forever.
