My mom, aunt and grandma are throwing me one in Pennsylvania around Christmas time. Matt's mom is throwing one for his side of the family in the beginning of January. And a great friend Stacy, and her family has offered to throw one at the end of January. I am so very excited to get to spend time with loved ones and celebrate this precious little one that will be making an appearance before we know it! Any gifts received is just a bonus.
But tomorrow (Black Friday!) We plan to go out and pick up a crib and see what other fun baby stuff we can find on sale.
Before we go pushing and shoving our way through stores like Buy Buy Baby and Babies 'R Us, here are some things we must keep in mind.
(Babies do not like to have buckles in their faces while in the car-
so we must find a proper car seat)
(Babies do not fit well in drawers- so we must find a crib for baby.
We are leaning towards a blackish brown crib with straight lines for the nursery)
(We already have two tvs in our house, and plan to hold off as long as possible before getting a tv for our child,
so we must buy a few toys to stimulate the babies mind.)
(Shoes are pretty gross to stick in your mouth! I have found some really awesome wooden teethers that I would like to buy. I may have to order these online though- not many stores have gone green, and don't offer wooden toys.)
(We already bought an ergo carrier, but still need to get a moby wrap,
or another kind of sling that will be better fitted for a newborn.)
(A baby bath tub is a must, since our sink is usually full of dirty dishes.)
(Our dryer is usually full of clothes- so I think we will need to buy a few hooded towels as well.)
Wish us luck on our baby buying adventure! I will update soon with pictures of our fabulous finds!
