Baby Registry





This week's themed WFMW is your favorite on-line store. Well, that would have to be Target.com for me.

When I was pregnant with baby #5, a friend of mine told me she was having a baby shower for me and asked me what I needed for this baby. I couldn't think of a thing right off the bat, but when I took stock of things I realized I did need a few things after all the baby poop and food on the little baby clothes.


There were so many people asking me what I needed that I decided to register with Target. I went to the store and had a lot of fun going through all of the baby stuff and picking out what I needed. When I returned the gun thingie to the lady behind the counter, she told me that I could also register on Target.com.

So, I went to Target.com and there were tons of baby things to look at. I ordered even more things that I thought were really neat and either didn't have anymore or never had. It ended up being more like a wish list for me.

I told my sister about this and she decided to invite family and friends from all over the country to participate in an internet baby shower. All they had to do was look up my name on Target.com/baby registry and find my list. They would order something and voila! it would be sent to my home.


This was a really good idea because all of my family lives far away from me. I ended up getting almost everything on my list! This is a great idea for anyone wanting to throw a shower for someone who is having a baby or even getting married!

This worked really well with all our long lost relatives but it didn't work so well with some others who just didn't understand the concept of "internet" baby shower! So, next time (if you have another next time!!), we'll make it a lot easier to understand. But I totally agree that online baby registries ROCK!

If you have fun with wishlists, I bet you'd love kaboodle.com. You can organize your own wish lists, registries, and recommendations, and come up with interesting ideas by looking at those of others. It's really easy to add items to your lists, from any website. You can see my lists at http://www.kaboodle.com/aneroid18. My parents especially have really appreciated the ideas for birthday and Christmas gifts. You should check it out!

Finding an appropriate gift for a baby is a challenging and time consuming task. While selecting a baby gifts one should keep in mind that it should be suitable for the age of the child and affordable for whom who is buying the gift. The toy which we are selecting for the baby, should be innocuous and must reflect a kid’s individualism and personality. In decree to select the correct gift for the infant you must go into circumstance particular features of thought and behavior at distinct stages of his or her growth. The better gift for a baby for whom you are buying the gift must be an infant plaything.

The Top 20 Clean Romance Movies Of All Time

I'm really picky when it comes to romantic movies. I prefer them clean and it's really hard to find those kind of romance movies these days. Nowadays, romantic movies are chock full of butts, boobs, and beds. Just sayin'. I was bored one day and decided to google the top romance movies of all time. You have got to be kidding me. One list had Brokeback Mountain on it. Pulease. I was, in fact, so disgusted by all of the lists that I came across that I decided to make my own. I decided to call it The Top 16 Clean Romance Movies of All Time, well, because I couldn't think of anymore to make it an even top 20. Now, my list might be different from most people. I said I was picky. First, I don't like b***** women. That scratches out a whole pile of popular movies. One of them being Gone With The Wind. Does anyone besides me want to smack that woman? Second, I don't like it when the couple end up in bed together. Uh, I don't really need to know, thankyouverymuch. Th...

Pregnant vs. Just Plain Fat

Saturday, I had the opportunity to go to a Pampered Chef party at a friend's house. I was feeling particularly bubbly that day and it must have showed. As everyone tells me to say hi to my boys for them, the consultant asks, "How many boys do you have?" I said, "Four," and she asked, "And one on the way?" I gave her a blank stare. How in the world did she guess? I am only about a month along. As everyone congratulates me, I am still in shock. I hadn't planned on anyone knowing for at least two more months. As I'm driving home, I realize that it could have gone badly. What if I hadn't been pregnant? That led to more thinking and here's how it went: Those of you who don't even start showing until your fourth month- I hate you. Those of you who don't get the kind of morning sickness that lasts all day every day for four months- I hate you. Those of you who don't go through a nightmare of pain without medication during labor- I ...

"It's On My List"

In the Veggie Tales movie, Pirates Who Don't Do Anything, Larry the Cucumber's character is afraid of everything. He even has a list of things he will have nothing to do with because they scare him too much. If he came across something he was afraid of, Larry would say, "It's on my list." The boys watched this movie to death before we returned it. One night, I told Sleepy to go up to his room and change his shirt. We were going to the swimming pool for lessons and I wasn't about to let him go out in public with peanut butter all over himself. He complained that it was too dark upstairs. Now, you might wonder why he didn't just turn on the light. Well, Mommy Dearest has yet to replace the lighbulbs in the ceiling light, but that would require too much effort. I would have to go into the garage, find the ladder, find the lightbulbs, and trudge everything up the stairs and set to work. For something like that, I would need to do a breathing technique I ...
