I think it's so funny (or remarkable) that each of your children's sexes comes in pairs! 2 of each, then 2 of the next, and 2 of the next!!!
Congratulations and I completely agree with whoever said this! What fun it will be in your house!

Wonderful!!!! Babies are so precious and it is just wonderful that little Elsie will have a sister close in age to play with. Love it!!

I used to babysit for a little Eliana. I never knew what the name meant but it has a beautiful meaning....too bad the little girl wasn't so beautiful acting. LOL :-)

I pray all goes well for the NUMEROUS ladies pregnant right now. God is increasing our HOD community!!!! hehe

Janae which means "God is gracious"

My sweet Little one is Sophia Hallel. Sophia is greek meaning wisdom and Hallel is hebrew for Praise. (like Halleluia)

We have also used Anna which means grace and Michaela meaning who is like God and is the feminine of Michael.

I LOVE the name AnnaGrace which means grace upon grace but I see you have already used Grace :D

My all time favorite Girls name from the bible is Jemima, just wish I could sell DH on it.

Dinah, Tabitha, Priscilla, nice and not as frequently used as Abigail and Hannah.

How wonderful. Congratulations.

My first dd's name is Marie Selah.
Selah is a word used in the Psalms and also in another book I am totally blanking on now. :( A minor prophet I think.
Scholars differ on what they believe the word to mean, but the predominant translation is that it was a musical pause David included to allow time for reflection on the Psalm.
I loved that. That we need time to REFLECT and MEDITATE on what He is saying to us.

Our second dd is Tabitha Stacy. I HATED the name Tabitha, but God told me to name her that [long story!] But Tabitha [Dorcas] was resurrected from the dead by Peter. Stacy is from the greek Anastasia which means resurrection. [It is MOMMY's name! ;)] Get this --> She came on Easter. God is GOOD! ♥

Angie - Congrats! That is some exciting news. We have no girls here, but if we'd been blessed with a girl, I would have named her Hannah Fay. One of my Grandma's names was Johanna, and my mother's middle name is Fay. Plus, I've always loved the story about Hannah in the Bible. :D

8Arrows - Four weeks will be here soon! I can't wait to hear what you are blessed with - and I have prayed for both Angie and you to have good labors and deliveries - with healthy, happy little babes. :D

Jemima is one of the three daughters of Job at the end of the book when the Lord restores to him what Satan had taken away.

the other 2 were Kezia and Kerenhapuch

Job 42:14
