But there are some old random notes and cards and photos I find that make the sifting fun and sort of a treasure hunt of sorts with the fun long lost discoveries I come across.
My favorite find this morning was three ultrasound pictures of the Sawman (before we knew he was either a Sawman or a little man in general!)... PLUS a piece of paper with our name brainstorming list for him/her!!! FUN!

[yes, Ryan wrote ^ that ^ on the list]
I showed the pictures and read the list to Sawyer.
He adamantly affirmed that the best choice was indeed what we went with... but the looks on his face as I read off the names were priceless! :)
For Savannah we didn't have quite the list of names... we knew she was a girl ( we didn't technically know, but we knew. and thus had just one back-up boy name ready.) and there were a handful of front runners going into the hospital...
Kathryn/Katy, Anna, Ally and Paige.
The name Savannah wasn't even on our radar until we met her!
What were your runners up for your kids' names??

Isaac was supposed to be Macklin..Mac for short? If he were a girl he probably would have been Isabella. He was born the day of hurricane Isabella & labor was a pain in the bottom! Ha!!
Lydia was a possible Olivia...until bedrest set in & I was watching VH1 Movies That Rock & Beetlejuice came on...loved the name Lydia & it was sealed!
Emily was always just an Emily :)
