At least, that's what Babys 'R Us would have you believe. We went to that behemoth store last weekend to complete a registry for baby items. Now that we know what we're having, we can plan accordingly. I had no idea how much junk you could buy for a baby. Of course, the baby couldn't give a hill of beans, but they sure know how to market to the parents.
In the couple of hours we were there, we registered for a car seat and stroller, a crib, baby monitor and myriad other items. However, Lisa went nuts with clothes! We indoctrinate little girls early that they need lots of clothes, I guess... Lisa registered for quite a few articles of couture, even including a pair of sparkly jeans on the registry. Me? I got to use the magic gun under careful supervision. The only items I managed to get in without her seeing included baby gates and a cute little brown and pink stuffed puppy.
I have a feeling people aren't going to buy half of the items on our list, especially since it's a little girl. After all, who goes to baby showers? Women. What do women like to buy? Clothes. I rest my case.
