Registering is Stressful

I did not anticipate registering for the baby to be so stressful! I have had a harder time picking out baby things than I did things for our wedding registry! Maybe it's part stress and hormones from being pregnant. (Justin thinks I am too picky :) ) I know it's also due to the fact that there are SOOO many choices and a lot of it is so tacky and covered in baby stuff. I wish there were more neutral choices for things. I think we finally have it covered though! The only downside is I have things on two registries- Target and Babies R Us- but oh well! Baby Girl S will not be deprived, that is for sure!

We have a crib!

I finally feel like we are making a little progress on the nursery! Today, we purchased a crib!! We went to Babies R Us on Sunday to finish up our registry. I happened to take a little stroll through the furniture section and there it was! The crib I was eyeing up online. Someone purchased it online, didn't like it, and returned it to the store. We got an extra 35% off since it was in the "clearance" section since it was a return, I had a 20% off coupon, plus we saved 10% by opening a credit card. So after it was said and done, we scored a $370 crib for $160! And, I love the crib!!!!! And bonus for Justin, he doesn't have to put it together :)
