Beckett Ryan and Elijah Luke


Finally we have decided on names for these sweet baby boys. Beckett Ryan Riley and Elijah (Eli) Luke Riley. After much debate and tears from me swearing we would never agree on anything, we decided. I love Elijah but Justin loves Eli so we will kinda call him both and he can go with either when he gets older. I just loved Luke (or Lucas) which we debated because my grandmother's middle name is Lou and my name starts with Lu. Beckett is a name we have had for a few years. Ever since we heard it and started trying to have a baby, his name has always been Beckett.
Ryan is Justin's middle name.


After we got that decided, mom brought her monogram machine with her from Alabama and we put those baby names and initials on so much fun stuff. Bibs, burp clothes, all kinds of fun stuff. Here are a couple that we did.












My parents also brought with them the curtains that Justin's mom made for the nursery. The turned out precious. After a couple of curtain rod/ring/grommet crisis's we finally found the best way to make them work. Mom and I put button holes in the top of the curtains and Justin looked at knots on the internet and found a really cute one to tie the curtains up with. The fabric is navy slip knot and looks like a net. It is perfect! Step by step we are getting the nursery together.
