a little shopping trip

Saturday morning Nick and I headed out to Babies R Us. This was our only free Saturday for about a month, so we decided to make the most of it. We wanted to go to Babies R Us and set up a registry. Not that we know what we needed, but at least once the registry was set up we could adjust it from home.


We had a blast with the gun! I love registering! Although it was total overwhelming. I mean we were pretty clueless. At one point we scanned bottles and then I said, I don't know if he will need bottles....so then we scanned sippy cups too!
We did the best in the toy department! We may not know much about babies, but toys, we can do that!
Needless to say, we need to do some work on our registry before it's ready for Santa to do a little shopping!

We picked up a few things for Bates' though.
Bates' room is going to be monsters and William is making all of them. Let me just say that the ones he has already made are SO CUTE!! This little monster was on sale for Halloween, so we got it for him. It may be going to Korea soon in his care package.

We also picked up a few rattles. I think we will send the monster one with his care package too.
Funny story, we put them in his room when we got home and a little while later Addie comes running into the bonus room with the lion rattle in her mouth. It's been a constant battle to keep her away from it! She has found it several times and LOVES to play with it. Bates better like sharing his toys with the dogs!


After Babies R Us, we went to Marshalls and got Bates these little puma socks. Nick LOVES puma, so we figured "like father, like son"


We had fun shopping for our little guy, but man, baby stuff is confusing!

  1. How fun! Get used to the Dog being confused about her toys. It took Molly a while to figure out that the basket in the nursery was Colin's and the one in the living room was hers. We have had to hide all of his stuffed animals in the closet so far!

  2. Oh I was going to ask if you'd decided about the nursery. So fun! Love the monsters theme.

    Registering in itself is confusing, and in ya'lls situation b/c you're not sure of what he's used to or needs, oh gosh! I feel for ya! But yes, those guns are dangerous.... :)
