Her name is Emma Rae. I call her Thursday, but this little one has many names ;o) This is my cousins daughter that was born on Jan. 8, 2009. Ronda, my cousin, didn't decide on a name before or when she was born so therefore I called her Thursday, since she was born on Thursday (Elvis' birthday as well). But, when Ronda would talk to her in the womb, she was refer to her as 'Bill.' We are not sure why, but when she did, Emma/Bill would respond by kicking...maybe that was a clue as to not name her Bill. (so to keep up her names: Emma, Thursday, Bill..) Ronda's older daughter, Miranda, did not/does not like the name Emma (not sure why) and called/calls her 'Not Emma' and now calls her 'Martha,' random I know! (names- Thursday, Emma, Bill, Not Emma, Martha- what a mouth full!)
So, after all the random names this baby is called her birth certificate arrives and her "official" name is 'Owens,' which is her last name. I guess she is like 'Cher' or 'Madonna' now, sweet! This part of the story goes like this: the lady that does the birth cert. at the hospital wanted to leave early the day Ronda and Emma were leaving the hospital and since she did not have a name yet Ronda asked for the forms and got a lot of grief over this. I guarantee Ronda is not the first or that last to do this. She in fact did this with her first daughter. All you have to do is give the parent the forms to fill out,they fill them out, and send them in to the court (I believe), but NOOOOOOOOOO. This loony bird from the hospital gave Ronda the forms AND she also sent them in to the court (or where ever), and DID NOT tell Ronda this! Now the baby's name is 'Owens' (her last name)....ugh!!! Ronda, now, has to go to court, pay, and explain how it wasn't her fault about the birth certificate to the judge and what other hoops they make her jump through!! I think this is just crap! Dragging a baby to court for something you DID NOT do!! So frustrating!!! She is an infant and does not need to be exposed to the germs that are in a courthouse. Some of those people are just fowl! I guess a good thing is that Ronda can totally change her name, if she really wanted to since she technically doesn't have a name. I mean goodness....she has tons to pick from: Thursday, Emma Rae, Bill, 'Not Emma', Martha. LOL! I hate thinking about it. I am just hoping Ronda calls me so I can watch the nugget while she is at court. I just love her so much and it makes me want to have one myself.....ACK! Can't believe I just said that!!!
