Baby Shoppin'

Hey Madison,

This weekend was packed full of stuff all for you! On Saturday we went to Buy Buy Baby, Baby's R Us, and Target to register for our baby shower in June. Let me tell you that was a very intimidating affair. I realized I have no idea what one actually needs to get before having a baby. Blankets, sleep sacks, burp cloths, changing pads, diaper genies, the list goes on and on. I don't know what the "correct" number of sleep sacks is but I'm pretty sure it isn't as many as we registered for (8).

After like four hours of all that registering your Mom was pretty tired so we headed home for a brief nap before heading out to Geneva to meet with Mom's friend Dani and her husband Jeremy. Geneva is a nice 40 minute drive south east of us. That is definitely one thing I miss about living in Atlanta - all our friends were no more than 10 minutes away. Everyone is so spread out here!

Sunday we headed back to Geneva (poorly planned, I know) to look at some baby furniture. We had found some stuff on Saturday but Meghan wanted to look at this little boutique shop cause her friends had gone there for their kids. We ended up leaving that place $2,500 lighter but you had a crib-to-full bed, a 6 drawer dresser, and an end table. See how much we love you already? Usually I would have analyzed a big ticket purchase like that for a couple weeks but instead pulled the trigger in 15 minutes.

All weekend long you were kicking up a storm in the womb so I guess you were excited about the though of all this stuff you'll be getting. A natural born shopper...I wonder where you get that from.

Love,
Dad
