Two new babies

[mrsduryee.livejournal.com]

I've posted this one already, but my best friend and her husband just welcomed Xander James into their family. I hate the name Xander. One of the reasons is that no one can get it right. Our pastor wanted us to pray for them the week they were to have him, and he called him Anders. At her baby shower, all these ladies kept calling him Ex-ander. My husband calls him Xerox, shamelessly. Bleh. But I can't say anything.

This morning, another couple in our church welcomed Sabra Lynne C. She is little sister to Lucas. I don't know Lucas' middle name.

I don't mind Sabra, but it reminds me of So You Think You Can Dance. Mom and dad are Sara and Jonathan.

I think Xander is a cute nick name for Alexander, but I'm not crazy about it as a proper name.

I liked Sabra from so you think you can dance (love the show!) but I don't know if I'd go as far as name my kid after her. I guess it's alright though. Especially if she's not actually named after that Sabra.
