take it as a win and start calling your bump Zara so that Ava learns her sister's name - he can't back out then!

think it's premature to change my signature? stuff it, will take it as a win, start calling her Zara and see if he corrects me!

We had DP's dad's birthday last night and everyone kept asking bout names, i kinda ignored it as didn't want to say anything and so over being asked and saying NO we can't choose.
So in the end MIL asked about 4 times so DP started joking again then he said Zara.

MIL: it's not Zara is it
DP: Yes it is Zara
ME: yes ZARA GRACE
MIL: oh *thinking face on*
BIL: whats wrong with Zara, i like it and Grace was a middle name we would have used
MIL: (after couple of minutes) actually i like it

First of all i don't care if MIL like it at all, Dad mentioned he didn't like Ava or as he said Ar-Vah... hmmm silly man, and i told him well it's not your baby i told DP's family the same story last night.

So DP seems to have made if offical i will have my gorgeous ZARA GRACE! to go with my AVA LILLY

Thanks everyone for your comments and suggestions, it has been greatly appreciated!

No we have A, L (me), M (dp) and Z... the alphabet is covered, we have a start, a middle and an end!
