That's right, now that the news is out to all of our closest family and friends we can shout out the news to the world. We will be welcoming baby Naomi Rose LaClair to our family in January and we are very excited.
So, What's in a name? Well.... long before we were ready to start our family we had settled on a name for a girl. Naomi is my maternal grandmother's name and Rose is Matt's paternal grandmother's name respectively. It happens to flow beautifully and coincidently is also a popular name in Japanese culture, where she will be born.
Now that the news is out, I am in full swing nursery planning. I'm trying to strategize ways to make my somewhat gender neutral sesame street themed nursery a little more girlie while avoiding pink at my husband's request. Rest assured, even with the "pink-ban" in place I have several ideas to add girly touches while keeping the pink to a minimal :)
Additional noteworthy happenings since the gender reveal would be the shopping. This child has been blessed by our friends and family to acquire a wardrobe bigger than mine, and she still has four months and change until she makes her debut!
I will post a picture below of the 4-D ultrasound we had done August 17th, as well as a few of the gender reveal with my family and grandma finding out she would be a great grandma to a baby Naomi! Enjoy :)
Baby Girl
One Thing that Grandma and I had in common was tears of joy! While I had no idea how much I wanted a girl and had tried to stay fairly neutral and excited either way, Grandma had no problem admitting she was hoping for a baby girl. Gee, I wonder why ;)
