Strollers and Bottles and Car Seats, Oh My!


I officially registered Junior at Target this weekend. I did it online (mainly because we are too lazy to go to a store and do it). I am pretty sure I put too much stuff on there, but it was fun.

It was a little overwhelming to really start to look at all the "stuff" that babies need. However, I have come to the conclusion that the baby's "needs" aren't so much an issue as the momma's "wants". For instance, does the baby really need a bottle warmer. I don't really think so.... but I know for sure momma wants one!

Lane's biggest contribution to the registry was to ask if he could register for a Nerf toy and to look at Consumer Reports to see what they had to say about the strollers and car seats. We took all that information and then tried to make the best decision. I'm starting to realize that all you can do as a parent (which I guess I have become, scary, huh) is try and make the best decisions you can but realize you can't control everything.

Which is hard, because I really think the world would be a lot better place if I controlled everything :)
