Registry Complete

The Registry

The registry is complete whew! I had already started the Pottery Barn Kids registry for the rest of the bedding we need. And for the cute stuff :) But the big registry is Babys R Us. Jamie decided that he would be no help and I should have my mom come instead- I actually agreed with that one. Ideally I would have liked both of them helping but after my mom and I went we both agreed he would have been miserable! Half way through we were wishing for wine! hahah I gave my mom a beer afterwards (I drank decaf tea yippee).

AHHHH!!!

Our mother/daughter day started out pretty typical- shopping and lunch and then we went in to Babys R Us. Initially we were pretty excited but that was quickly killed when we reached the diaper section (the first section in the store). Due to my research on chemicals (I won't even go into the details) I did want to cloth diaper. Jamie was totally against it. And after I figured out Jacksonville doesn't have a cleaning service I was against it too. So our compromise was organic or chemical free diapers BUT several people, who have boys, told me they use Pampers and Pampers doesn't have organic diapers. We were stumped and confused so I didn't register for any diapers. I figured I will try out any and all I get through the showers. The other issue was the store doesn't have everything in and all the different fabrics. And anything cute is not safe FYI. Well I still think we picked really cute stuff but still. AND baby world changes constantly so we were asking ladies with babies in the store what they thought because obviously 26 years ago things were a lot different. We spent hours going through the store and I had a very specific list! Finally I was exhausted, my back and feet hurt so we went home to sit on the porch and drink our drinks. I spent the rest of the night and this morning doing everything online! But it's done!! I will say even though it was overwhelming and tiring it was fun! Everything is so cute! And the best part was Jackson was moving and kicking around all day :) Of course anytime I try to get Jamie to feel his kicks Jackson decides to take a nap...

Here are some cute clothes my parents bought Jackson. When I laid them down fat man found a new sleeping place...

Hey lady look at me I'm cute too!

The little bear is on the butt!!! And the hood has little ears!!! The onsie has little trucks on it! So cute! Jackson is going to be decked out :)
