Your Names- Hadlee, Hays and Harper

Before your Daddy and I got married we talked about names for our children.   We picked out 3 names because we thought having 3 kids would be really neat.   Your names were Peyton, McKenzie and Caitlyn.   After many years and finally having to make the decision on what to name the 3 babies that were getting ready to enter our lives, we decided that maybe we should rethink the baby names.   We knew that we wanted family names for your middle names but did we still want Hadlee to be named McKenzie, Hays named be Peyton and Harper named be Caitlyn.   

When we finally found out that Baby A would be a girl, Baby B a boy and Baby C would be another girl, our name game started again.   Your daddy was very particular about names, we couldn't have a name that he had ever taught or coached in his almost 10 years.   For a good month we pondered names for you three kiddos.

One day while I was driving around Brenham, I saw a bumper sticker on the back of a car that said "Hadley".    While I was driving I immediately called your dad on the phone and said that I had our Baby A name, Hadley.   He loved the name so we were set with the name for Baby A.  Later that same week, I found the name Hays, which we both gave the thumbs up to for Baby B.   I loved the name Rece so your daddy finally decided that we would have Baby C as our Rece.  

Now the middle names were needed to be decided so we could finish the naming of the Wilson Trio.  We toyed around with Sue- after Mema, Aunt Cynthia, and Aunt Sue and Lynn after your mommy .  Utimately we decided on Hadlee Ray after your Uncle Kenneth, Hays Middlebrook after your GGGrandfather and Rece Leigh after your Nana and Aunt Leigh.   We finally had your birth names.

At the end of May, less than a month before you were born, my bosses' daughter had a girl that she named Harper.   We loved the name Harper and thought could that be our Baby C's name.   After we had named all three of you, we realized that Hadlee and Hays both started with "Ha" and that their older cousin Hannah also started with "Ha".   We loved Rece but we really loved the name Harper.   Less than a month before you three were born we changed our Rece to Harper.  

Now we were going to have "Ha, Ha, Ha" and they were going to to have their older cousin, Hannah that was also a "Ha".   For over 7 years the four of you have been refered by your Mema and Papa as their 4Hs.  

Tomorrow we will welcome the the 5th Ha into our family.   We are over the moon with excitement to meet Haidyn and welcome him into the world of  "H"s.   Hannah Camille is going to be a great big sister and you three will be the best big cousins.   When I asked you what was more exciting trick or treating tonight or going to meet Haidyn, all three of you replyed that tomorrow is going to be more exciting!
