So what are we going to have?!? Get your votes in now!
Sorry, no OWT for you to really go by. No crazy cravings. Had a few super hot nights very very early in 1st tri. HB in 1st tri was around 170s-180s. Last HB 3 weeks ago was 156.

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."

Cole Alexander is one of my favorite names, and I love both individually. And I've really been liking the name Nathan a lot.

And I absolutely adore all the names you are considering. Delilah was almost Lucas Nathaniel if she were a boy and now I'm loving Nathaniel as a FN. Alexander and Xavier were both high on our lists for Zack and we were considering Cole as a MN. I also think Sebastian is adorable. Personally I don't like the ideas of Jrs, III's but I get that a lot like the tradition of it.
Isabel is so popular because it's a great name.

Love Sebastian! Around here it is more often a French first name, so the nn is almost alway Seb, but the other nn thrown out are so cute - i've never heard them!
