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...

Grooming Gargoyles

Some say boys are much easier to raise.  I can see that.  Girls have that PMS thing going on once a month and who wants to deal with that?  Not me.  It's bad enough I have to deal with myself.  Plus, girls can be overly dramatic and cry a lot....wait.  Maybe they aren't too different from boys.  However, there is one thing that I probably wouldn't have to deal with if I had girls instead of boys. That would be hygiene. Being a girl myself, I know that girls like smelling nice.  We love to take baths and soak in sweet smelling bubbles and make our skin feel smooth.  No way are we going without brushing our teeth just in case our honey wants to steal a kiss.  Hair, makeup, deoderant...let's face it.  We are not going to face the day without looking good. My boys are different. They would wallow in their own filth and revel in it.  Big Mac Attack has finally gotten to the point where HH and I don't have to nag him to take ...

Surprise, Surprise

Our cute, little booger is being potty-trained now. Oh, joy. I hate potty-training. To me, there's nothing cute about it. It's a nasty, disgusting business and I'd rather it pass by without me having to do with it. The nasty, disgusting part is really not the part that I hate the most. It's the fact that I have to get off my patoosky every stinking hour to place the cute, little patoosky on the potty chair. Let's face it, I'd rather be doing something else. He is the last one, though, so I will prevail in this. I must or the child will be using my floor for a potty chair for years to come. Case in point. Sneezy came to me with a soiled diaper telling me that he "poot". I don't know why I didn't believe him. Maybe because I didn't smell it, but I took his diaper off thinking there were no surprises. Well, that surprise plopped out onto my carpet and I gasped in shock with my jaw to the floor. Since Sneezy was standing in close proximity...
