We have been a bit busy and forgot to tell everybody what we named our sweet baby. We chose the name Morgan Jane Merkley. The name Morgan is a family name from Lauren's side. In the 1800's the Morgans were coming from England to Nauvoo, Illinois. The father passed away on the journey and some of the Morgan family was taken in by a guy named Christopher Merkley, my great-great-great grandpa. None of the other names we had picked out fit, so there you have it!
This is Morgan's Grandma Boizelle.
This is Morgan's Nana. This picture is right after labor, so Morgan looks like she has been in a boxing match.
This is Morgan's great-grandma Godfrey.
We got Morgan dressed up for her first BYU game day! Without any prompting she made the "touchdown" signal. I have never been so proud in my life. Let's hope it is a good omen.

what a great history! I didn't know that about the Merkley/Morgan connection- where did you find that out from?
The whole name itself has a nice ring to it- way to go guys!
I LOVE THAT BABY! I can't wait to see her- all the crying she has been doing is because she hast seen Aunt Lindsay and she knows it!
I assume the touch down signal only went up once...?
I can't wait to see the new blog headline...where the women is? the man is? and the baby is?
