August Rush....I love that movie.
I love the name August! When I had my second boy, it was August or Sawyer. He looked like a Sawyer, so that's what he is. But I loved the name August...Gus, Gussie, Auggie, the possibilities are endless. We just have Sawy (like Soy). But it fits him great!
Very Cute Jill!!!
You are a goof! I had a friend who named her son August.
I sincerely hope you have a girl!!!
