Double drumroll please…….
I was in charge of naming Baby B and I picked…..
Preslyn Kylar Munson
It is pronounced with an emphasis on the S…Like pressssslyn not Prezlyn 🙂
Preslyn comes from the meaning a priests meadow and beautiful.
Kylar means crowned with laurel. Laurel is a wreath of leaves given to award honor or victory.
We hope you all had as much fun with the game as we did!! Now we can’t wait to see the faces to go with these names!
Drumroll please………………….
We would like to introduce to you our daughter, Baby A’s name…..
BJ named her………….
Ella Marie Munson
Ella means beautiful, goddess, and light
and BJ wanted to name her after his mother’s middle name, Marie.
Baby B has had her first name guessed but not the middle name…so keep guessing 🙂
Last clue!!!!
Fill in the blanks and name this song! The answer will give you two matching letters side by side that will give you two for A and two for B 🙂 Now you have all the letters to the names…let the guessing begin and we will announce the names next weekend! We’ll see if anyone guesses the right names!

According to Wikipedia…Acapulco is known as the paradise of the americas. BJ and I took Hayden with us two summers ago and it was so much fun. She did great on her first plane ride and we just chilled for a whole week. You can see all the details here and see how little Hayden was then. So weird to see her and remember her that small.
Acapulco was also the setting for Elvis Presley’s movie Fun in Acapulco.
We made it to 29 weeks!
Your baby is growing rapidly now. This week she weighs about half a pound more than she did last week (about 2 1/2 pounds total) and is a tad over 15 inches long from head to heel. Her muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and her head is getting bigger to accommodate her growing brain — which is busy developing billions of neurons. Every day, about 200 milligrams of calcium is deposited in your baby’s skeleton, which is now hardening. With this rapid growth, it’s no surprise that your baby’s nutritional needs reach their peak during this trimester.
The Letter M
Well I don’t have a story that relates to the clue but I will tell you the story of how we got engaged, for those who have never heard it 🙂 Since for me that happens once in a lifetime!
It was the summer and BJ and I were taking a BIO class together here at home. We were supposed to watch Gatica for some reason, on our own time. So we had decided to get together and watch it at my house. Well, that morning I woke up with some freak eye disorder. One of my eyes was totally swollen. We had no idea what was wrong. So BJ had called and asked if we could go grab a bite to eat before we watched the movie. (It was right around our 1 yr. 4mo. anniversary or something). He asked if we could go somewhere kind of nice and dress up a bit. Well I told him I didn’t feel like doing anything and I surely wasn’t getting all dressed up and putting makeup on my swollen eye. As the day progressed I felt less and less like going anywhere, but he kept insisting. So reluctantly I agreed. My eye started un-swelling and I started to feel better. So, I start getting ready and my mom keeps coming in and telling me that I should wear something nicer. I didn’t really care what I was wearing because it was no big deal to me, so I was kind of getting aggravated. So , BJ shows up and we leave. This new little restaurant had just opened The Black Walnut, and I had been wanting to go for a while. So he pulled up there and I was so excited. We start walking in and he makes a comment that he made reservations for us. I didn’t think much of it, and he even said he reserved us a room. I thought, well a room is way too big for just us, but oh well. I didn’t know why he felt like we needed to eat in solitude. So we walk in and someone is waiting for us and had the room all closed off. So we walk in to the room and there are several small tables, and one in the back with a card and a rose. I thought it was so cute and just a gesture toward our anniversary of being together. So we go sit down and I start reading the card. I don’t remember the exact wording, but it said something like ” here’s to the first of many new anniversaries“. I didn’t get it at all….so I’m reading this out loud and look up as I finish and BJ is on his knee with the ring in front of me. I totally freaked. I had not seen that coming and was totally caught off guard. I kept asking if he had already talked to my parents (which of course he had) and I just couldn’t believe that this was happening. I was so excited, and of course I said yes. So I put the ring on and we started talking about how he had worked everything out and planned everything. He had met with my parents two weeks before and I had no clue. They were great secret keepers. So as we are talking suddenly his family and my family and his best friend Jared all walk in with a video camera. I could not believe it. That’s when I started crying. So we all ate and celebrated our first dinner as a merging family. I think I ate two bites 🙂 It was the perfect day! And BJ had picked out the ring himself so I had no idea at all. And it was gorgeous 🙂 Then I realized why my mom had wanted me to dress up more. That little sneaker!
The End
This is my norm
