Becoming part of the "Parent Club"

Now that the holidays have wrapped up and the Christmas lights are down, Rod and I can focus on the next big adventure, having a baby! Yesterday we went to Babies R Us, and just looked ...and looked, and looked! Good grief! We have been to Babies R Us about a million times in the past, but normally on the hunt for some hidden registry item that probably hasn't been on the shelves in 2 months! This time, it was different. We found ourselves comparing the weight of stroller units! We started making a list (that is how we start any project) of all the things we may need. We decided to only include items needed in the 1st 6 months so we don't overwhelm ourselves. At one point while we were "looking" Rod said to me, "I guess we're in the 'Parent Club' now."

Final thoughts: How can something so small need soooo much stuff??
