Today Andy and I ventured out into the frozen tundra that is Salt Lake right now to try and tackle the holy grail of baby preparedness... The registry.
We started at Target, where everyone and their mother were doing their registry. I mean seriously, we went through 2 scanner guns and didn't even get through all of the aisles. I gave up when the second gun died. I thought we did pretty good but it was so incredibly overwhelming.
Speaking of overwhelming, our next stop was Buy Buy Baby. That place is awesome/overwhelming/informative/scary as poo. We got to sit down with a lady who explained everything and gave us this super sweet checklist of what they recommend to register for. She also gave us a tour and pointed out a lot of great items for us. Yes, there was so much stuff at this place but for some reason it just seemed more manageable.
There were a few points when I thought, "Little Baby Nugget, do you really need all of this stuff?" No, they probably don't and we will probably freak out having it all but hopefully we can get some of the basics and then just build from there. I mean, honestly, is a bouncy seat, excersaucer, swing, and play gym really necessary? We will soon find out. Stay tuned, my friends, stay tuned.
