Anyone else overwhelmed by people's generosity?

My shower is in 2 weeks. I just peeked at my registries and I cannot believe the $$$ things that are flying off of them!

So far the Britax Maraton was purchased, the Summer Video Monitor, my Glider, my stroller...

I just can't believe people's generosity especially in this economic climate! So many things were just my "wish list" and I can't believe they are almost all purchased!

I don't know how I am going to thank people!

I know what you mean.....My shower is this coming Saturday (I can't wait!) and my BIL bought BOTH our cribs, mattresses and bedding sets (we're having twins, so you can imagine how much he spent!!). Someone else bought our Summer Video Monitor and our Graco Sweetpeace Soothing Center! I can't believe it, either!!

completely!!!!!!! we're NOWHERE near my shower and a few of my closest friends pretty much have it completely planned....because they are so excited...

we're likely getting a crib from a close friend...

one of my other friends emailed me yesterday saying that she has packed up all of her sons' clothes that he never wore JUST IN CASE it's a boy....

it's amazing! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
