Which one would you get?

I have wanted a necklace from the Vintage Pearl since DS was born.  I don't know why I didn't get one with him, but now that we're expecting Baby Too, I want to get one with charms for both kiddos.  I'm torn between these designs.  Which one would you pick?  (PS - I thought about doing just initial charms, but their first initials are "B" and "M" and I really didn't want that around my neck. Wink).

For anyone concerned about the bad juju re: getting something with a baby's name on it before the baby is born, this would be something I'd probably ask DH for around Mother's Day (maybe. If I can wait that long.)

Okay...so tell me what you think:

Choice #1

Choice #2

    Ooh, ooh, I love this game. My far and away #1 is choice three. It's so pretty. Followed by two, then one (which I like in theory but in actuality not a huge fan of that particular bird silhouette). I love the curved shapes and the simple font on #three (and it's so much cuter with two charms!)

    I guess, for me, it depends.  I love #3 the best, but really like #2 as well--ONLY if your kids have pretty birthstones.  I'm going to sound like a dumbass, but my boys are April babies.  Yep, that's diamond.  Pretty blah on a necklace like #2, but if you had, say, July and September, that would be lovely.

    This (except I don't have April babies).  I'm not a fan of #1, but love 2 and 3.  I think the stones would make the ultimate decision for me.

    For #2, Ben's would look just like the "Benjamin" charm in the photo with a blue topaz.  Baby Too will most likely be born in January (garnet, which is also my birthstone), but if for some miracle I go until her due date, than her birthstone would be amethyst.

    So blue and deep red charms or blue and purple charms. :)

    I vote #2 then.  That sounds pretty.

    I love #3. I actually got that for my SIL for Xmas and sent the link to DH so he'd know to get me that for a future gift :)

    I love both 2 & 3 and almost bought #2 for myself a while back, but I have this one w/ a different font: imageI really like the ones w/ names when you have more than one child, and I'm thinking #3 is my favorite and would also look good with both names on round discs. Love Vintage Pearl. Make sure you Google a discount code; I found a good one back when I ordered.

    I like #3.  Even though the stone colors would be pretty together.  I think the simplicity of #3 is nicer and I really like the font choice for #3.

    i like #3 as well, mainly because i'm not a big gemstone wearer. but if you are, then #2 is a close second.

    I vote #3 also. I do like the bird, but it looks a little big for me.

    None of the above.  Go to Bead It on S Lamar and make your own, borrowing their metal stamping set.  ;)  They have lots of shapes, sizes and colors or metal tags, as well as little adornments, plus it will be much cheaper.
