And I thought she was an original...

In Finley's Thursday playgroup there is another Finley!  What are the odds?  She is a Finley Faith and her name was selected from a baby book, instead of being named after her mom's favorite baseball player, Steve Finley.  Their names are where the similarities end, these two little girls are so opposite.  It was hysterical trying to get their pictures together.  Finley Faith just wanted to be held by her mom, Finley Anne wanted nothing to do with me (she had a stroller she was pushing around.)  Finley Anne couldn't get enough cake, Finley Faith was much more interested in a banana.  Finley Faith was wanting to stay in one place, Finley Anne was intent on running everywhere.
Back in the seventh grade when I decided I wanted my first little girl to be named Finley Anne, who knew that the name would be popular once I had a baby?  I blame Angie Harmon (Finley Faith), Daniel Baldwin (Finley Rae) and Lisa Marie Presley (Finley Presley).  But who can really blame them?  It is a fantastic name!
