We are so excited to officially announce the names! I'm 29 weeks now, so they'll make their grand entrance in 10 weeks or less!

And the girls' names are...
Joy Savannah and Blythe Annabelle! We picked Blythe and Joy because they both have meanings to the effect of happiness, delight, exuberance, and obviously joy... which is exactly how we felt when we found out we were having the twins! Savannah and Annabelle were chosen for their good Southern roots. We both grew up in Georgia, have deep family ties to Georgia, and love the Low Country, thus Savannah. We associate the name Annabelle with the antebellum period and the historical South, though the actual Hebrew meaning is grace.

Wow, 29 weeks. Time will surely fly. As we've had our new little one home for a week, I've been imagining how your lives will soon change with TWO little ones. So fun! Beautiful names. Do you pronounce Blythe like Gilbert Blythe (Anne of Green Gables) :-)?
