Her name is what??




Yes, we know her name is a bit unusual. We get tons of questions about her name, so I'll try and explain it while you browse these oh so cute pics.
Well, actually, there's not much to explain. We don't know how we came up with Aerya (pronouced area, like in math, or Area51). It evolved while I was on leave watching endless hours of TV waiting for our baby to arrive. We wanted something that Derek hadn't come across 18 million times in class. The middle name is easy, Rayne (pronouced rain) is my middle name as well, so we have Grandma & Grandpa Huggatt to thank for that wierd one. Believe it or not, we would have used Derek's middle name (Clifford), if we'd have had a boy (thankfully she's a she!) But seriously, she's so cute we could have named her Mud and it would have sounded sweet. And so long as Chad's fears of her becoming a large child with a name like Aerya don't come true, it'll all work out.
