Baby Names And Breast Pumps..OH MY!!

I finally got my breast pump. My Medela Pump In Style. On sale at Target for $249.99. Awesome deal! I am so excited. The box will be staying securely closed until at least a week before D-Day though. I don't want it to be damaged or anything before I need it. I have spent lots of time staring at the beautiful box though. Seriously, SO EXCITED. Now all I need to go with it are some breast milk storage bags and some breast pads. I came across some breast milk storage supplies I have from Claire. Some containers and some bags. The containers and bags are both still sealed in plastic (containers) and box (bags), so no need to worry about contamination. I'm still going to give the containers a quick once over, then pop them into a gallon bag so they stay sanitary until arrival. That's what I did with the Breastflow bottles we have. Cleaned, dried and stored in the gallon baggie for later use.

We have FINALLY decided on a girl's name. If we have a girl, her name will be Talia. We have no ideas for middle names. It's a good thing I checked out a baby name book from the library. Maybe we can get some more ideas. We have yet to decide on a boy's name though. Is that a sign I'm having a girl? I hope so..lol..David loved the name Parker for quite awhile. Me, not so much. He's recently discovered though that there is an actress named Parker Posey, and with his dislike of gender neutral names, Parker was quickly tossed aside. So, again, it's a good thing I checked out that book from the library, because we are going to need it. We still have 2 months left to decide on a middle girl's name and a boy's name, but I'd like to have them picked out already, just to be ready. With us not knowing what we are having (and I'm going crazy with that) I have so much flying through my head with coming home outfits, needing more gender neutral sleepers, needing bottles, packing the hospital bag.......SO MUCH!! I'm a planner. I like to plan ahead, which is obviously hard because babies have their own time schedules, but it would be nice to have things ready to go, including a name.
