Spill it Chicas!!!!

I am pretty sure that I have way too many things figured out way too early for our babies and we're still TTC!!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I confess:
- that I have names picked out for both boy and/or girl
- that I know which bedding I want for both boy or girl
- that I secretly want to start a registry! I'm just too chicken to get FOUND!!!
- that I already want to clean out the room that is to be the nursery

This one takes the cake though:
- I want to order a Vera Bradley diaper bag so bad (possibly due to my Vera Bradley bag addiction!!!!!!)

Spill it Chicas!!! Please tell me I am not alone! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

- picked out names for the new baby. Both boy and girl

- picked out all the bedding and theme


- put a pillow underneath my shirt to see what I looked like pg. Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA: I forgot to add that I have a bin full of baby boy and girl clothes. I picked whatever I loved from cousins babies that out grew them.

Re: Spill it Chicas!!!!

I have no shame, so I will admit

*we have boy/girls names picked out including if we happen to have twins (run in the family)

*I know the paint color I want for the nursery & both the boy & girl bedding I want (Plan on purchasing both since we will not find out & then my Mom is in charge to put the bedding on)

*I have started to clean out the room that WILL be the nursery

*I have searched Babiesrus.com & buybuybaby.com for items that I want.

*Have 2 strollers picked out.

*I have a couple of infant onesies from my SIL that she never used on my nephews.

Re: Spill it Chicas!!!!

ok! i'll play!

* i confess that i also have names picked out...my girl name has been OK'd by my husband, but i am still too chicken to tell him the boy name i like because he so vehemently opposed my last boy name suggestion.

*i actually purchased 2 totally adorable crib sheets at the pottery barn outlet last time i was there

*i have my heart set on the peg perego skate stroller and i am actually saving up for it as we speak becasue i will have to pay cash since if my husband ever found out i paid $900 for a stroller he would divorce me (not really)

* i already have a piggy bank started for her/him upstairs in the room that will be the nursery that has almost $600 in it!

*a have a whole favorites folder on my WORK computer titles "b" with links to all the cute stuff i am finding.....

eeeek!Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Spill it Chicas!!!!

HA! I love this. I have to admit, yes names are already picked out for both boy and girl. I'll let you in on a little secret....it's my DH that has more things planned out then me!Chat Icon
He has the "bug" of cleaning house and getting rooms ready. Knows my cycle better then me.
He does look on websites for different things in terms of furniture, bedding. Me...I can't think about it. I make myself so NUTS just doing the whole TTC thing. Chat Icon

OMG I think we share a brain!!! First of all, I too have a Vera Bradley and want to order a diaper bag and possibly a few other kinds of diaper bags because I just love bags.

I have many things picked out too such as names, items I want to register for and etc...I have been doing lots of research! Chat Icon

Re: Spill it Chicas!!!!

Before I got pregnant, I created my registry at Target. They have an option if you want to make it public or not. Mine is not public. I have blue and pink items on it and when I find out the sex, I will remove the other color.

I had names picked out a LONG time ago.

I already knew where my shower was going to be.

I have the color scheme picked out for the new room. Including the bedding.

I love this stuff!!Chat Icon

Re: Spill it Chicas!!!!

i have to say besides thinking about names, i've done nothing.

i believe when God says it's my time, it's my time... or when He says it's not my time, it's not my time. it would kill me to go out and buy all these things and then not be able to use them.

i want to wait until i am offically pregnant before i go buying things and naming the child, etc. etc. because you never know what can happen, good or bad.

Re: Spill it Chicas!!!!

I have earmarked pages of PB Kids of bedding, nurseries, decor, etc of things I liked and have showed to DH and my mom to get their "approval."

I bought one maternity dress at Target b/c it was on sale and super cute. Chat Icon

I daydream constanly about what it will feel like to see a BFP, telling DH, telling parents, announcing, etc, etc, etc.
