Registry and wishlist
We have a BRU registry, it's Registry #: 60292598. There are a lot of things it claims are unavailable but it lies -- they come up if you search for them. I also have a wishlist at Chapters under my email address. (first name _ L at yahoo.com)
Yes, there is a lot of PINK in her future. We've waited too darn long for this baby girl to not go pink and frilly. She's also going to have a million dolls and possibly some Barbies. Neither of these things caused us lasting damage as children and Th'Boy fully intends to counteract our Girly influences with his Hot Wheels and Lego. :)
I'm trying not to buy too many "young" toys. I know I'm going to be given/lent a lot of baby stuff so when I was picking toys I tried *really* hard to choose stuff she'd play with over the longest possible period of time.
There are a couple of Fisher Price things I'm looking for that *aren't on the registry/wishlist: Peek-a-Boo blocks (which have been foolishly discontinued) -- they're about 2 inch square plastic blocks with stuff inside them. I lucked into a set the other day but I still want MORE and I'm also looking for one of the vintage balls with the chimes inside. They had a clear section with swans inside that would rock as the ball was rocked.
None of this means that you *must* buy us anything but people have been asking for the info so I figured I ought to put it up. The shower will be sometime in Oct/Nov, we'll set a date as soon as we figure out what to do about Th'Boy's birthday this year.
