A few weeks ago Justin and I ventured out on a lovely Saturday to the land of babies "R" us to start registering. I was so excited to start registering for this little one, after all how hard could it be… I mean when we were getting married that was one of my favorite parts of planning the wedding. So we get to babies’ r us and we are ready, ha, well we thought we were ready.
First off registering for someone you don’t know is hard, we are picking stuff out for somebody we know nothing about. And second, Justin and I realized we had no clue what we were doing. We stood in front of the feeding section of bottles, pumps, cleaning supplies, pacifiers and so much more for 10 minutes and then we both looked at each other and said lets come back to this section. Then we wandered over to the stroller section, we had this section down (we thought), we did our research, we knew what colors we wanted. So we found the stroller/car seat we both loved. We strolled around with it, played with it, looked at all the compartments and pockets, then we closed it up to see how heavy it was. Well when we tried to open it back up, we couldn’t figure it out. We are sm
art people, surely we can work a stroller…come on! Well that task took us 30 minutes, a lot of laughter and help from a sales person to finally figure it out. And once she helped us it was a breeze! So we continued for about another 30 minutes of registering and then called it a day, as you can imagine it was a little overwhelming for me.

Since I was not successful on the first round of registering, my mom came with me 
this week and helped me continue. And she so graciously bought us our travel stroller, so we can practice and also get the dogs accustomed to the change that is about to occur. After Justin put the stroller together, Lily was not very happy with this stranger object in her house; Max sniffed it then moved on. So we stroll around the house with it every day to get the dogs ready. Next week we will take the stroller and the dogs for a walk to see how they do. That should be interesting.

Lots of love,
