Choosing Three Names

Mike and Pia began the search for their baby girl's name last July 2010.  They first short-listed it down to two names:

"Anna Elizabeth"

"Maria Isabelle"

However, Mike knew by experience that having a common name can be more inconvenient than having a long name.  So they decided that they needed one more name to complete their daughter's name. That name, Mike and Pia felt, needed to be Filipino in origin.

Attending Childbirth Class

Feeling the need to learn as much as they can about the coming birth of their baby, Mike and Pia started to attend weekly Childbirth Classes beginning 14 August 2010.

Since they were praying for a natural delivery, it seemed like the next logical step in their preparations.
