After getting many smiles and much laughter from all her cute little sounds and squeaks, Piper suddenly fell into place and seemed right for her. Her middle name came a little easier. Lily is a derivative of Elizabeth, who was Mary\u2019s cousin and the mother of John the Baptist. It also happens to be Natalie\u2019s favorite flower.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The couple adds they opted to wait to find out whether they were having a boy or a girl until the baby\u2019s birth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe one gender prediction that really stuck with us happened really early,\u201d they say. \u201cNatalie\u2019s 92-year-old grandpa walked out one morning, looked at Natalie and asked her where her little girl was.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were all really surprised and explained to him that Nat didn\u2019t have a little girl,\u201d the couple adds. \u201cHe smiled, shrugged it off and said he must have dreamed it. Natalie and I about lost it! [We\u2019re] glad his dream came true!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Paslay is currently recording his next album and has a live album in the works, both of which are due in 2019.<\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n<div class=\"description\">Lauren Tingle is a Tennessean and storyteller who eats music for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
