the original london

this is london! the original london:)

she was my roommate about 10years ago. i lived with jordan and london in a two bedroom apartment in a very busy tempe complex. oh how i loved and still love those girls. london was just one of those gals who always made ya smile, was super fun to be around and would make me laugh. jordan and london together were quite the pair! jordan was always sayin somethin crazy and london was very much a big sis to me. both girls had a heart of gold and were every bit as sassy as they were sweet! i saw both of them marry their sweethearts and move away.

when i got pregnant i was just certain i was having a boy. which for me was easy. i already had pictured what he was going to look like and had a name picked out for a good 10years at least. he would be jackson!…brandon thought his middle name was gonna be tousley but i was not convinced. soooo when we went to the ultrasound and the doc asked what i thought we were having i gave the boy response and he laughed at me! literally laughed and said moms esp is normally pretty good but i was way off. we went home and went back and forth over girl names for months. finally about 3 weeks before the little miss was born i told brandon we were not leaving the house til we had a good name! a permanent name! something strong, original (so she wouldnt be the 10th amy, stephanie or lisa in her class) somethin a little tomboyish, a name you could have a nickname with. and a name that did not remind you of someone you hated from high school or an ex-girlfriend holding name from B. it had to be pretty too! the name london kept coming around. brandon finally put his foot down telling me i had loved the original london so much it was time for a second addition. and boy am i glad i did. it fits her and she is everybit the girl that my original london was.

i miss you london. i hope your family is doin well! after living together for that year or so this is the only pic i have of you. i dont  have even one of jordan and i together either …how that is possible, i will never know!
