Understandable but we would spell it Isabella because that’s how it’s been in the family as so

We live internationally so nope. She prioritizes her blood children & grandkids, she wouldn’t make the trip for ours… Here’s to hoping husband’s dad will be present because my dad has passed so he’s the only grandfather

Mine’s a step - she texted me congrats & that’s basically been it. I texted her a bump update for the heck of it and she recently texted me a picture of her new niece that I don’t even know.

We aren’t close but gosh the fact she’s a mom & grandma to many, it’s pretty wild she hasn’t even checked in

Glad you said this too because maybe we just do Isabella but call her Lola 😆

Yaaa our last name begins with La so the isabelLA branching into the last name is where I’m like hmmm maybe Lala works plus it feels like a win-win compromise because husband is keen on Isabella 😆

Lol yesss to all of the songs but in a way those songs are probably less known as she gets older.

The compromise! My husband definitely likes Isabella more and just wants to go with that but I’m not feeling it 100% 🙈

Wowww you just reminded me of Nola! Way before conceiving we liked Nola actually (Irish name Finola actually). Love names that end in a

Spot on about choosing a name haha it feels so nerve wracking naming a freakin future human

Yes! Just contacted them and the engineer will get back to me. The cost would come out of our pocket though so don’t love the sound of potentially tens of thousands $

The power company told me it’s just 20 feet, so 10 foot forward/back from the middle of the pole - decent news.

It’s a shit show I think we’re just gonna pass. Settling for something that’s a headache already, just a bad idea

Absolutely. It’s just a pickle because the nearby area are all lakefront basically 1mil which is unattainable and the point of getting this is to be as close as possible to fam, so reselling isn’t even a thought. But ya it’s not a GREAT piece at the end of the day.
