Haven't seen this in a while so How did you come up with your bump name?
Mine was an email I got after I had my second son. I quit changing it after the third 
Mom to six awesome kids - Levi is 12, Landen is 8, Gabrielle is 6, Lucas is 3, and Oliver and Samuel are 2 years old. Love my crew.

Re: Haven't seen this in a while so How did you come up with your bump name?
Not to be Debby Downer, but I went through a rough relationship (abusive) in college. As soon as I could see it myself, I ended it and ever since I became obsessed with the idea of second chances for myself and the 'rebirth' of me back to who I used to be. From Easter lilies to butterflies (symbols of rebirth) and just the importance of the word itself in my life going forward.
Long story short...
rinascita = Italian for rebirth
My username is so lame but they wouldn't let me change it! Over 5 years ago I joined the Knot as we began wedding preparations.... I am a teacher so I thought it was cute that I would no longer be called Miss but Mrs. But now that I am on the bump the name really makes no sense, oh well!
This is my "re-do".
I had a different name about 5 yrs ago when I joined The Knot for wedding planning and idiotically used my actual email address (which contained part of my real name) as my username. During my pregnancy with DD1 I occasionally posted on the month boards and soon realized there were lots of bat guano crazy people out there that would try and start stuff about you if they got your info and I stopped coming on here for awhile because of all of the drama.
When I found out I was pregnant for the third time I thought I would give TB another try and wanted to find something that would be a little more inconspicuous but described me. Back in the day my BFF lived next door to me and some mutual friends called us Lucy and Ethel of the neighborhood because we were always together, up to something, and we were neighbors. True to life. I picked 3 because this was what I thought my 3rd child (HA HA HA HA HAAAA). My life seems to be one long episode of that show, lots of craziness, love, insanity, and laughter.
BTW, levi, it's great to see you posting again. I hope that means things are going great for you!!
