We were stumped by a bottle!

So Saturday we headed to Babies R Us to register for baby gifts. We had already been to the store several times in the past few months looking at strollers and car seats and had done quite a bit of research online so we thought we were ready to register. We had no idea how wrong we were! We were cruising through the registry until we hit the Wall O Bottles - not exaggerating, an entire wall of baby bottle choices.
We stood there in total confusion as we picked up one bottle after another - did we want a slanted bottle, a vented bottle, a bottle with a bag, a wide nipple, a narrow nipple, a slow drip nipple, a fast drip nipple...the choices were endless. 45 minutes later we finally registered for a bunch of different bottles and nipples figuring if the baby doesn't like them we'll just go back and buy more. I think I now understand why do many folks breastfeed - less choices to make!
After moving along from the baby bottles we managed to fill out the rest of the registry and have (hopefully) figured out everything we need for Miss Elizabeth. Only 4 months to go!
