Baby Stuff

gwangi and I decided to go to Babies"R"Us and see what they had. We didn't buy anything nor did we sign up for a registry. We just browsed.
It wasn't as overwhelming as I thought it would be. The only thing that was too much to process was breast pumps/bottles. Plus I have to call our insurance to see if they cover breast pumps.
We looked at strollers/car seat combos and found one that we liked. We looked at cribs and didn't find any we thought was worth the money they wanted. Zach found a diaper bag he thinks will work. Everything else we are going to try to get used.
It is amazing the sheer amount of stuff that is sold as "needed". I am glad we have the diaper thing taken care of and we have learned how easy it is to feed babies once they get to the solid food phase. Both of those items could get really expensive if you bought disposable/pre-packaged food. I also hope breastfeeding works out because formula is pricey!
I also got most of the soon to be nursery cleaned out and will soon start working on patching the walls. Once that happens we will be painting and setting up. Woo!
