After taking a step back, I've realized I let hormones get the better of me and let myself get stressed out over some of the silliest things. Oh well, it certinatly wasn't the first and definitely won't be the last time. ;-) After talking with my husband, I decided on the Graco SafeSeat. It's a little more spendy, but cheeper than the Chicco. My husbands largest request was that we get an infant seat that will last as long as possible - only the SafeSeat and the Chicco will hold a child up to 30 lbs, everything else cuts off at 22. I think it's the right decision, and if it's not, oh well I'm done thinking about it! Now I'm having fun registering for cute little outfits, burp rags and bibs. This part is so much more enjoyable.
Here is are my registries if anyone wants to take a look. I would love opinions on anything that might be unnecessary, or anything I might be forgetting.

wow your list is great! the only thing I would skip is the ear thermomater, its really hard to get an accurate temp reading on them and alot of times it comes out wrong. but seriously the rest of the stuff made me want to have a baby again just because all the super fun stuff you get to buy!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip on the ear thermometer!
ReplyDeleteLooks good to me. I've become more of a fan of less is more, simply because I find I have too much stuff. I prefer to just put a towel in the bathtub and put a tiny bit of water in instead of a baby bath tub, things like that but your registry looks good and I'm so excited for you to have your little boy. OH...I've never used them but some people would not live without a baby moniter, especially one that has two recievers (?, or whatever they're called). This way you can be in other parts of the house while the baby's asleep but still be confident you're not missing anything.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestion! We do have a baby monitor all ready, Jeff apparently bought it before we were even pregnant...lol. Somebody is excited to be a grandpa.
