Meet Chase

For those of you that have been asking. No you are not going crazy, the name of our youngest has been changed.

The reason for the change:

Ken and I had never gotten to talk about names because of Ken's crazy work schedule. When you only have 10 minutes to talk, picking a name unfortunately is not a priority. We had Chase about 2 weeks earlier than expected which also caught us off guard. We are not sure how Ryan was decided on since it was not on either of our individual top 5 lists. From the beginning we both had trouble calling him Ryan. It just never seemed to fit. We also HATED how all of our kids ended in the same 'en' sound. Having a Kailyn and Caden is bad enough (they are way too close). Ken said we should change his name when Chase was only a few weeks old. I had to warm up to the idea but finally decided to look into the logistics of changing it. After much confusing research on the internet we finally decided that it was worth the effort. So about a month and a half ago we begin to call him by his new name, Chase. He responded immediately to the name so it must be a sign that he likes it better too. As my mom pointed out, it ironically did correlate to the time Chase got on Zantac and began to become a happy/new baby.
