Her name is...

I didn't realise till after I posted the blog below that I completely assumed that everyone knew Little Miss Oh's name but that I hadn't written anything about it! Oops!!! Sorry~!

So while we were at one of the Youth Summer Retreats (think it was the Sr. High one) was when we decided on the name Sara(h). We'd been m-ing & r-ing about names since we found out I was pregnant and then concentrating on a girly name since we found out in July but on that day in August, Peter asked me what I thought of the name Sara(h) and I was completely gobsmacked! I'd been thinking of the name for the past few days but hadn't mentioned anything to him yet as I wanted to go thru all of the pros and cons in my head first and hadn't quite finished but he actually mentioned it first! Needless to say we were both very happy to have found a name that we both liked. :) The only thing that's undecided is whether or not we're going to spell it with an 'h' at the end! I prefer with, he prefers without. I think I'm starting to sway towards without but don't tell him I said that. ;)

As of I think last week, Little Miss Oh also has a Korean name which will be her middle name - Juhee. 'Ju' as in 'all around' and 'hee' as in 'happiness / joy' so her name means 'one gives happiness / joy to all around [her]'.

Miss Sara(h) Juhee Oh. :)

After I wrote my previous blog I also realised that I forgot to mention that another reason why I've been so busy is because my house in the UK is finally in the process of being sold and I had a lot of paperwork to complete! It's been a bit of a pain as the tenant refused to pay rent during the last few months she was living there and then left suddenly but the estate agents didn't even tell me that she'd left! So I was here in the US becoming increasingly frustrated at the fact that I wasn't receiving any rental income and then I find out... Anyway... The nightmare's nearly over now - I think?!?!?!

Another thing I left off the previous posting re things I need to do: study for and take the DMV (US equivalent of the DVLA) driver license tests. I need to take both the theory and practical tests, or as they call it here, 'written' and 'driving' tests, as mine is from outside the US. Even within the US if your license is from a different state, you're required to take the practical again in order to be issued a CA driver license. I was supposed to have taken it within a certain number of days after becoming a resident of CA and I've gone past it but I don't they really care. I'll definitely be taking both of them soon though as I need it for ID purposes as well!!!

Going to write separate blog updates for a couple of other things...

Lots of love,
Jenny
