Baby Names & Baby Plans

I'm only on week 4, day 1 of my pregnancy, and my husband and I are already thinking baby names. If we have a boy we're probably going to name him Edward (that's his father's name). We always knew that we were going to name our boy Edward. We never had that kind of certainty with girl names though. He has always liked the name Mercedes. He wants to name our daughter Mercedes :) Really? I don't think so! On the other hand, every time I suggest a name, this is what he does: he brings both his palms close to his mouth and acts as if it's a microphone; then he "announces" with a coarse voice, "Give it up fooooor Alexaaaaaaa". If you still don't know what I'm talking about, he thinks the names I like are stripper names. loooool Anyways, today we both gave up on Mercedes and Alexa and looked at a list of popular and not-so-popular girl names. Here's what we like so far: Paris, Valerie, Madison, Mila, Natalie, Adriana, Lilian, Amelia, Mikaela, Gianna, Sierra, Valentina and Juliana. Such gorgeous names, aren't they?! I know it's too early to talk baby names but still, it's so much fun, and we simply can't resist the temptation :)
I think I am, little by little, getting used to the thought of being pregnant but it comes in waves. Most of the time I am extremely happy though. In the morning I wake up with such joy. It kind of resembles that feeling when you wake up the day after kissing someone for the first time. You suddenly remember that it happened, you smile and keep cherishing the memory. It's very much like that. Once I wake up I remember that I'm pregnant, I smile and keep planning and dreaming, etc., etc. I can't wait to know the sex of the baby so I can start shopping!!!! It will be so much fun!
I continue going to yoga, I finally got my husband to agree to go for an hour walk with me every day and I joined a gym today where there is a swimming pool! Yey! I heard swimming is really beneficial for both the mom and the baby!
What else?! OH! I don't think that since I'm pregnant now my blog is going to be devoted solely to pregnancy! No! I will do all kinds of blogs but I might just label them to make it easier for my readers to choose which blogs to or not to read :) On the other hand, what do you think about a monthly vlog (video blog) about pregnancy? Is it something you would be interested in?
P.S. Don't forget to vote for the name you liked the most :)

I like all the names but Paris. I just can't imagine calling your baby " Pariziiiik utem mrutd" :)))lol
The most favorite one of the list is Natalie.
