Viggo and Mia met in Italy. Viggo was backpacking through Europe with a group of friends, and Mia had went to Italy with her friends as a graduation present from her parents. They met in a cafè in Florence and had a very long conversation about art and travelling. They agreed to stay in touch. After a year of exchanging letters and e-mails, and talking on the phone, Viggo (who lived in Norway) decided to move to the United States. A year later, they were engaged. They got married six months after that and honymooned in Florence. Now they live in Louisville, CO.Viggo and Mia were ecstatic to find out they were going to have a baby. What they never imagined was that they would have not one, but two! Two little princesses. They decided to name the girls after places in Tuscany, because Italy has a very dear place in their hearts; and for the mns they decided to honour classic movie stars Katharine Hepburn and Grace Kelly. Now that the girls are here, every day is a challenge, but they couldn't be happier. Two years later, the Van Rossums received another surprise. Mia was expecting twins again! This time, two boys. With two sets of twins in the house, things are getting pretty hectic. So, Mia's mum moved in with them to help with the kids. Viggo and Mia couldn't be happier with their four little miracles, but after a while they felt it was time to add another member to the family. They couldn't believe it when the doctor said Mia was expecting twins again! They decided to keep the genders a surprise this time. Mia was put on bedrest after a few discomforts during the second trimester, and her mum moved in again to help run the house and keep an eye on the kids. The Van Rossums welcomed two little healthy girls into their family. Florence and Sienna are very excited to have two baby sisters to play with!

Okay. Since you're in Middleton, your naming theme will be that all of the kids will have progressive alphabetical MNs, you can start anywhere in the alphabet. Your first child is a DD, the rest will be determined each round. Follow the links and you should be fine. Let me know if you have any questions.

I thought that India was part of Southern Asia not Southeastern or Eastern Asia.Unless you chose purple and he is from an island in India, but then it says island country and India isn't an island country. Sri Lanka is an island country though. And it is right next to India. ^_^
