We're still going on the girls' name thing -  I thought we had it sorted.  I
was just wanting some other opinions on having a first name starting with
the same letter as the surname.  My opinion used to be that it was a big
no-no, but that rules out about all my 2nd favourite names ...

I'm pretty sure that I felt the beginning fluttering last night in bed. I'm
11 weeks so it's early, but I'm reasonably sure that this is what it was.
