I'm back from registering
It was really fun since I did some "preshopping" and lots of research before dragging DH out to the stores. We even got our nursery furniture!!!
Please take a look at my registry and let me know what I'm missing or if I have something I don't need. I know I'm missing stuff, because I figured I could add it online with my DH!! I only registered at BRU and its under .
Here's the nursery furniture and bedding we chose (it is all part of the same set, its hard to tell in the pictures because I couldn't find a picture of the crib in the right color.)
Crib with drop side and converts to toddler bed (we bought it in the color of the dresser)
Combo Changing Unit (purchased color shown)
Dresser (purchased in color shown)
Bedding
We also got the Dutailer glider and ottoman in a matching wood!!!

Re: I'm back from registering
Your registry looks great.
Any reason you picked the Britax Decathalon over the Boulevard? The Boulevard is the newer model, and I think has some improvements, but may be a bit bigger.
How are you planning to use your stroller? Just for shopping or for long walks outside?
I'd suggest:
More Burp Clothes (I saw 3, I'd suggest 10)
Onesies (Register for 3 mos, 6 mos, 9 mos, 12 mos sets, you'll need them all!)
Sleepsack in the next size too
Side snap shirts for the beginning
Diaper Bag
Portable Changing Pad
Extra cover for your Boppy
The bedding set is a question -- depending on your level of nervousness, you may not end up using it. Current "expert" recommendations are no loose blankets or fluffy crib bumpers. Of course most people still use them, I just didn't want to have one more thing to worry about.

Re: I'm back from registering
The only thing I would recommend is:
1. purchase an extra base for the infant carseat -- those things are a pain to install and it'll be easier to have the base in both cars.
2. We looked at umbrella strollers yesterday and the "Baby Trend" one that is $40 is a lot nicer for not much more money then the jeep one. There are features that you'll want in an umbrella stroller -- like a basket underneath -- and a seat that at least reclines somewhat -- and the jeep one doesn't have it.
Actually there is a stroller by Combi called the Strollee that they sell online, on one step ahead.com or at BBB that is AWESOME and much better then the both of them for $40.
3. I have that same tub and while I LOVED it when she was a baby, around 5 months it started getting hard to bathe her in it because it's not that big. Next time around I'll get her the "Euro Tub" because it's much bigger, and I'll use that foam thing in it if needed when the baby is very small.

Thanks Melissa.
I do have the infant car seat on there, unfortuantely its one of those items without a pics. I changed the tub, in the reviews its seems you may not need the foam insert, but I will check it out next time I go into the store.
As for the umbrella stroller, here's my inexperience talking, when would you use this rather than the regular stroller. Do you keep both in your car at all times? The stroller has managed to bog my mind
