A Bewildering Place

I promise never again to give my friends a hard time for not posting on their blogs. During the day I think of all sorts of great blog posts; however, when I get home, the ideas are gone - or the motivation to blog is gone. :)

We decided it was time to start looking at nursery furniture this week. We already checked out Nebraska Furniture Mart, but wanted to see some more options. We set out to visit Babyland and Kids Rooms; however, they were closed on New Years day so we ended up at Babies R Us.

For all of you moms out there, Babies R Us is the greatest place on earth. For those of us expectant moms or people without kids and shopping off a registry - it's a bewildering place. I thought magically we might have gained some knowledge that would help us navigate the store and the myriad of products. No such luck. We wandered the aisles checking out all sorts of cool products but not knowing what we needed. Looks like we still have lots of learning to do. :)

The good news is we left there and went straight to the bookstore and bought a book a few of my friends had recommended called Baby Bargains. I've made it through the cribs chapter and am feeling MUCH more informed. WHEW!

More learning to come...there really will be something new each day.

First of all - FINALLY on the book.
Second of all - Babies R Us is the worst laid out store ever. I still get lost in that place although it's nice to have everything in one place.
