What's in a name?

It can be HARD to pick out a name for a baby.  After all- this kid will be stuck with this name (and all the nicknames that might attach to it) for the rest of his life!  We had already picked out Addison and Brogan's names long before they were even planned, but with baby #3 we were totally starting from scratch.  We went through and it seemed I had picked out a new name every week, but finally we narrowed it down to a few different names, which included Mason, Connor, Colton, and Grayson. (BTW- if you asked Addison what she wanted to name our baby boy, her reply was Cindy...)  The only problem is that we couldn't really find any middle names that worked with these names, AND Stewart and I couldn't agree on annnything together. 

 Somehow, the name Cash was brought about and we both kind of liked it.  Then we added a middle name, Wallace- which is Stewart's Dad's name. (Stewart really wanted to name one of our babies Wally- and while I don't mind the name, I just can't quite picture myself holding a little "baby Wally").  We finally agreed that "Cash Wallace" has a pretty great little ring to it, and while it's a pretty strong name, it's not too "heavy".  Before we really decided that he was going to be Cash Wallace, the kids did for us.  We asked them what they thought about it, and ever since they've been talking to "baby Cash" inside my belly.  So baby Cash, you dodged a bullet... we won't name you Cindy :)
