Baby Registry

There’s nothing like baby registry shopping to remind you that your house will soon be taken over by baby gear! During our last date night, Hubby and I browsed aisle after aisle of bottles, strollers and every type of blanket you can imagine. He was patient as I perused every aisle, examining every item to make sure I found the best products.
My advice to new moms would be to do some research before shopping and make sure you allow plenty of time to cover the stores. If you arm yourself with good information, you’ll make better choices – like walking past the prettiest baby swing and signing up for the safest. Online reviews aren’t infallible, but they are most often written by real parents, with real experience with those products. They are a great tool in your quest for the perfect stroller/car seat/teething ring. But even with research, nothing beats pushing around the stroller for a few minutes and trying to unlatch the car seat from its base. Shopping can be overwhelming; there are so many choices that even with a checklist it can be stressful.
We’ve picked out some really awesome items that I’m sure baby girl will put to good use. I’m most excited about the stroller we chose. We opted for a jogging stroller since both of us like to run and we spend a lot of time around athletic fields for Evan’s different sporting events. Of course we look forward to bringing her home in her new car seat as well.
