Hey dad...surprise!

The list of what we need to do to get ready for baby is longer than my arm. Now I know why God lets it cook in there for nine months!

We haven't done a thing - except put Baby Davis on a few daycare waiting lists - and since we've just got five months left, it's probably time to start thinking about the rest. One of the places we decided to register is Amazon.com - free shipping over $25 and they're cheap with a good selection. (Don't look at our registry yet - there is literally nothing on it. More on that in a future post when my mind is not all melted.)

I put Chad on the registry too, since he's obviously got a vested interest in this and I wanted him to be able to add or delete items as well. Shortly after signing up, I get a gChat from him:

Chad:  "Ellen Davis has asked us to let you know that you have been named as Ellen's joint Baby Registry partner at Amazon Baby"

me:  Aren't you flattered?

Chad:  um...is it just me or does that read like a way at least one guy has found out he was going to be a father?

Definitely get the video baby monitor. My sister claims it is a lifesaver! And don't worry... I've already ordered "This Little Pig Went to Prada" in case it's a girl :)
