Excited and overwhelmed

In true spirit of Labor Day, Micah and I took the yesterday off. We spent the day shopping. I know that sounds weird, but there was a lot of things we needed to check off our list. After a quick stop at Best Buy, we headed to Babiesrus to start our registry. I've never been so overwhelmed in my entire life.

The lovely people at Babiesru gave us a checklist of things we should look at registry for, but they don't tell you which brand/style/color/size to buy of things. Did you know there are easily 30 different types of strollers and high chairs. Just a quick walk down the diaper aisle made my head spin.

An hour and half later, I think that we managed to put together a decent registry. And we walked out of the story hoping that the baby comes with an instruction manual. :)

Afterward, we grab some lunch and then went to the Gardners furniture store. Our intent was just to look at dining room furniture. However, we walked into the store and fell in love in with a table and hutch. So we ordered it. Everything should be delievered by the beginning of November, just in time for Thanksgiving, which is great since we are having the family done to Maryland this year.

As for today, we are headed off to the vet and food shopping (which is the most important stop of the day because we have no food in the house!)
