Dashiell David Rowe arrived!

[lyndsayjenness]

I had my baby February 20, at 4:17 AM! He was 8 lbs 14 oz, 22 inches long. He's gorgeous! I was shocked by the fact that NO ONE at the hospital had ever heard the name Dashiell! Everyone seemed to really like it, but I got a few "how did you come up with that?" comments. Also shocked that no one can spell it right, I mean, both of his grandmothers spelled it wrong! And then when I called to make his first doctor's appointment, the guy assumed he was a girl! I'm soo happy with his name though! We actually call him Dasher more than Dashiell, which hadn't even occurred to me until after he was born. Mostly though, we call him Dash. His cousins say "baby Dash" and it's so adorable!

Huge Congratulations, Lyndsay! :D Welcome to the world Baby Dashiell David Rowe, what a great name you got! Any chance we'll ever get to see a picture?

Congratulations, Lindsay! I would love to see a picture, too. I love the name you chose for him and I'm sure it was fun for all of us posters to be part of the naming process.

Congratulations, Lyndsay! I've seen a lot of your posts but I had no idea you were so close to delivering! We'd LOVE a picture to post in the nameberry blog, if you're agreeable -- and love the stories about no one ever having heard the name and thinking he was a girl. Where do you live? Dasher's adorable too. Anyway, would love to do a little piece on you if you'd like to send details and a pic to pam@nameberry.com. And again, congratulations!!

A HUGE congratulations, Lyndsay! I had so much fun responding to your posts (as I'm sure everyone did), and I was so excited to read about Dashiell David Rowe's birth! And what a great name! Dashiell is stunning, David is so handsome, and Rowe adds that extra something special to the combination. What a gorgeous name for a gorgeous baby! Best wishes to you and your family! :-)

Congrats! What a lucky guy to have such a gorgeous name. I am 8 days past my due date but am trying to be patient :)

[lyndsayjenness]

Thank you all for the congratulations! And especially thank you for all the help in picking his name! I'd probably still be undecided if it weren't for you guys!

I'd love to show pictures, but I don't know how... How can I do that?

Lyndsay,

I think you can send Dashiell's photo to Pam or Linda, and they may post your nameberry baby! I've seen Pam ask other namberry mommies for photos, and am guessing this is the way to go. I can only imagine how darling he is! :-)
