Expecting
With all of the excitement going on throughout the months, the family barely recognized that Marisa’s due date was coming up. There was just so much going on. Then one morning, soon after Blake and Camie left for work and school, Marisa went into labor. She was really scared at first because she was all alone in the house, until she remembered that the repair-woman would be arriving any minute to fix the broken television. And sure enough, only a few minutes later, the repair-woman came in and heard Marisa’s painful screams from the bedroom. She ran in and panicked at first, then regained her composure and proceeded to coach Marisa through the delivery. “Isn’t it odd how service people are always present at the birth of my children?” Marisa thought as she felt another contraction coming on.

“I think the real emergency is the fact that you seem to be stuck inside the door, Mrs. Repair-Woman.”
Thanks to the arrival and quick thinking of the repair-woman, Marisa was able to safely deliver her new baby. As she held her tiny new baby in her arms, Marisa had on overwhelming rush of happiness. Her second daughter was simply beautiful.

“I don’t care what your daddy says…I am not naming you Gertrude.”

Eeee! Awesome story as always, and the repair woman stuck in door shot makes me giggle madly.
I vote for Cynthia, Claudia, Claire or Clementine!

Is it a “C” theme? I like Claudia and Claire, too… or Caitlin or Chrystelle (which is French, like Camille!).

Ooo, great suggestions once again! So far I have narrowed down the name for this baby to: *drumroll*
Daphne (from Jen)
Claudia (from Kay)
Chrystelle (from Annette)
I’m going to try to figure out how to make a poll for this decision…(I have some time before the next update b/c I am working on the next “Running From a Forgotten Past” update for my next post). All of the afore mentioned names will not be forgotten however! I will continue to refer to them for future babies, and you’ll probably see them in even more polls! Thanks for the input guys, it makes the game so much more fun for me!

Haha, so cute. As usual I love the commentary and I also love that Cammie is such a nerd.
I wonder what she’ll be when she grows up.
