Tanzi Belle Blessing

Tanzi Belle Henderson

Colt and I were brainstorming names in between contractions while I was in labor with Tanzi.  We were just brain-dumping on the paper and both really liked it.  It stuck when we saw her and went over the list again!  

The traditional spelling of Tanzi is Tansy.  The meaning of the name Tansy:

Greek: Eternal Life 

Latin:  Tenacious:  Holding Fast - Keeping a firm hold (Hold to the Iron Rod = Word of God), tough, not giving up, cohesive:  unity

Native American:  Tansy = kind of flower - in the Daisy family.  Perennial - clusters of small bright yellow cheerful blossoms.   

After knowing Tanzi for 10 months now, this name fits!

She is cheerful (except when she is away from Mom or Dad!)  Tanzi is a mellow and calm baby.   A ready smile and a patient soul - she LOVES her sisters and is so much fun to play with.  

Tanzi was given the middle name of her Great-Grandma Beulah Belle Bonham Finicum.
Grandma Nelda Finicum made this beautiful dress - the buttons on Tanzi's dress are from Beulah's button drawer.  Pretty Special Indeed!

Meaning of the name Belle:

French:  Beautiful

Hungarian and American:  Intelligent

Spanish:  Devoted to God

This picture is just SO cute!

Tanzi and her cousin Scotty were blessed on the same day.
Together on their special day.  
Too fun that Silver and Judd were also blessed on the same day.


Tanzi had two special dresses on her day!

All pictures can't be smiles!  Real life :)


So glad to have you Tanz!  You are good in so many ways for our family - your sisters adore you and take such good care of you - watching out for your needs and helping you in any way that they can!
