The meaning of Cullen is "good-looking; handsome".
We already know our baby boy is going to be a handsome little guy! ;)
I painted the wooden letters a few weeks ago.
We've known for a while what we wanted his name to be.
The colors of the letters will be the colors in his room,
different shades of blue and an olive green.
I can't wait to start decorating and setting up the nursery!
I've already made a few Etsy purchases for his room that I will have to share soon!
p.s. just for the record i have never read a twilight book.
nor have i seen a movie.
neither has billy.
we are not into vampires.

PS the colors are awesome, I liek how you used so many but they all blend nicely.
I’m glad you made that disclaimer because Twilight was the first thing that came to my mind, haha!!!! I like the name and know he’s going to be a handsome stud!!! :)
I love the name!!! I actually suggested that to my husband if we ever have a boy but my reason is because I have read the Twilight books and that's where I got the name from so that's why he nixed it. hahaha.
I love your little disclaimer "we are not into vampires" LOL!!
Hahah I was wondering about Twilight! lol I love the name and colors!
Oh I love it!!!!
Sooo cute! I dont do the twilight stuff either so I had no idea! But that is super cute and original!!
Heheh your "ps" is funny! I love his name!!!! Those letters turned out great! Fab job :)
Love it! And I love the colors, so cute I can't wait to see the rest of your decor!
I am not into vampires either. I'm glad I'm not alone.
LOVE IT!!!! I cannot WAIT to see little Cullen! I'm so happy for you guys! XOXOXOXOXO :)
Love the name and I love the colors!!!!!
Love the name & love the colors. My sister goes to high school with a kid named Cullen right now, so it's not just Twilight fanatics who love the name. =] It's original, love it!
Love the colors you're using to decorate his room!

Cute, yet unique name. There is not a doubt that little Cullen will be a beautiful baby! Love the color scheme as well.

Annie this is AWESOME! Love the name and even though I heart the book and movies I don't care why you chose the name! It's so cute and I love the letters for his room! So happy for ya ;)
That was going to be my guess! I think it's a great name... very cute for a little guy but still strong enough for an adult! Excellent choice.

LOVE the name! One of MckMamma's boys is named Cullen which is where I first heard it and thought it would be a GREAT name for a boy! Your little disclaimer is too funny!
I went to college with a guy named Cullen... I personally would have never made the connection (or lack thereof) with the vampire books if you hadn't brought it up!
I love it. I like you never watched or read that stuff so I don't really make an association with it. He's a lucky little man that Cullen....awww so cute!
I absolutely LOVE it!! It's perfect!

LOL totally thought of Twilight with Cullen but that's a great name love it!
I love the name! I am a Twilight fan, but that didn't even occur to me when I saw the name - I just liked it (I love last name-type names for first names).
Pretty nursery colors, too!
Hahaha!! Thanks for the clarification on your "no twilight. no vampires. no book. no movie"
Cute name! Can't wait to "meet" the little guy!!
Aw girl that name is PRECIOUS!!! I can't wait to see pictures of his room I'm sure it will be AMAZING!

I LOVE the name Cullen. I have never read the books or seen the movies from Twilight either, vampires are not my thing either. I actually have only heard this name once (on another blog) and instantly fell in love with it. He is going to be handsome, I just know it. Congratulations! Love reading the blog!
I love it. I think its such a cute name and the meaning is great as well :)
Very cute name! I think it's unique and perfect!
Well, you NEED to read Twilight! BEST BOOKS EVER! I think I read all of them while I was pregnant with Jarrett ;) They are soooooooooo good! I haven't been so into a book in years. And, you don't have to be into vampires. It's more of a love story & it's just so good! Go out & get them & read them girlie!
Twilight is the best...I hafta agree! His name is very cute and I know a guy with that name.
well I'm a HUGE Twilight fan! Edward Cullen is quite the "man/vampire".... lovely choice my friend!
Your disclaimer cracked me up! Love the name!
Love the name. Love the colors. Never seen twilight either and i think my life is just fine without it. Haha.
Love it! I know a little boy named Cullen and he is precious!
You may not be into Twilight but I am so therefore I love the name! ;-)
I love it!! Great name....cute yet manly at the same time. AND not common...but not strange!! haha.....perfect!

I love this name Annie!! :) You shouldnt worry what people think, he is yours and thats all that matters! :)
This is so weird!One never hears that name,and now I hear it twice in the space of a month.A friend of mine had her baby boy last month,and he is named Cullen Christopher Bowers.She says he is named after a New Zealand rugby player that her husband has always been a fan of.But I just think it's a super cute name.
PS.Her boy is a total little stud,so I'm guessing you're right about the meaning of the name ;)
LOVE IT!!! I can't wait to see how you do his nursery!!
Oooh great name!! I had a friend in highschool named Cullen and he was such a sweet guy! And he was also totally handsome. You picked a good one ;) And I love the wooden letters!
LOVE the name!! I love last names as first names!! Those colors look so great together!! I'm sure your little boy will definitely be ""good-looking; handsome". Sooooo happy for you guys!! ; )
Such a cute name! You did a great job on the letters!
You were an absolutely beautiful bride, and you will be an even more beautiful mommy! I love your blog and glad I ran across it! Congrats to you!

Your next child will have to have a D name so y'all can be A, B, C and D. ;)
