Baby Fever

I think I have developed baby fever. Yesterday I went to Babies R Us and Target to register for Baby H's stuff. I am so thankful that my currently pregnant mommy friend, Lyndsy, assisted me with this exciting task! I feel blessed to have so many wonderful mommy friends/family/support system to begin with but I especially felt grateful yesterday because #1) I didn't have a clue as to what items I really needed, and #2) once I figured out what I really did need, I found myself with a plethora of choices! Dr. Brown's, Playtex, Born Free, Tommee Tippee or Avent? Drop ins, glass or BPA free? Graco, Chicco, Brantix, Evenflo, Baby Trend? Bouncer, high swing or low swing-- and which stimulating theme do I want for my infant? And the list goes on. For a first time mom, registering for baby items can be quite overwhelming. The stores provide you with checklists, but nothing is more helpful than a mommy friend who knows what has and has not worked for her. It also helps to get assistance from someone with a similar attitude and taste.

My favorite item at Babies R Us was this:

Newco Serenity Classic Non Swivel Glider (and Ottoman) - Chocolate Chenille
I personally don't like the look of traditional gliders so this one was perfect! I sat in it at the store and it was very comfortable, plus Chris and I can use this chair for many years to come. It is very expensive but hey, a registry is a WISH list!

But the most perfect item for baby that I found (Babies R Us online) was:
Trend Lab Rockets Hooded Towel, Wash and Burp Set
 How could I not love these for our little Rocket Boy?!

  1. I do think Rocket Boy needs those, the chair is also great.

    I can't wait to spoil the little guy with cute stuff.

  2. Hey, we have that same chair and ottoman, and I'm thinking about selling it actually! (Our rooms in our house are so small, and it's just too big- but soooo comfy!) You should check out my blog post dated 12/22/08 (Called ready to rock) so you can see a pic- it has a squared off top instead of a rounded one, but otherwise it's the exact same! I may post it on craigslist in the next month or two...so let me know if you want to possibly check it out!
