Study in (Pink) Baby Skin and a Name

We just wanted to share with you where Breyer's inspiration for her name came from. Breyer is the Americanized version of the German word for brewer. When the boys found this "er" name, they all stopped looking - back in October.

Everyone somehow knew that was to be her name. We don't associate Breyer with brewery or beer, we associate it with brewing love. We've written over 100 thank you cards to people that have helped us welcome her into this world.

She's a magnet for generating love, and feel this must be one of her gifts. We wanted to honor Becky and her baby Ben in some form of a name and feel that having found a "B" name does just that. They are both known for their copious output of love and have given her perfect examples to follow. 

Her "J" middle name of Jane honors the rest of our sisters - Jennifer, Janeen and Janel. Jane is a shortened version of Janeen and Janel; Jennifer also has a daughter who shares the same middle name.

We have traditionally given our boys the name of a latter-day prophet. For our daughter our sisters are the latter-day, living examples for Breyer to emulate.
