Registry fun

Can you believe that when Justin and I registered at Babies R Us this weekend it was the first time I have ever made a baby registry?  This is my third baby and I had never registered before.  Crazy, right?  With my first baby I felt like I didn't deserve anyone helping me out.  With the second we felt that it would be wrong to register for the baby when we were also registered for the wedding.  With this baby, we thought it wouldn't be right to register for my third child.  And then.... one day I was sitting down trying to make a list of the things I need to get for the baby and writing down the web addresses for the particular ones I liked and I thought, "if only I could just click and save without ending up with a huge list on my favorites page."  Ding, Ding, Ding!  That is what registries are- lists.  So we decided that we could use a registry as a list.  It is really just an electronic reminder of what we have left to acquire.  We know not to expect anyone to buy anything from our registry (not that we would complain if they did Haha!), but oh my goodness, it was so much easier than writing list after list and keeping track of things here and there.  Now I can click and check. It was so easy to do, really pretty fun and is making things so much simpler to keep track of.  No longer will I have to just remember what scent baby wash I liked, just which bouncy seat Hubby and Boogie could agree on, or (and this would have been supremely difficult) which little toys Boogie insisted the baby would like.  I am really regretting never doing this earlier!  Oh and did I mention they gave us a little present from pampers and coupons for doing it?  Woot woot!
