Eeyore fun...

Yesterday we had our online shower. For those of you i haven't told about this yet, i am a part of a group of first time parents from all over the US and Canada, and we are all due the first week of October. Well, we organized this "online" baby shower with each other, since we pretty much know each other like close friends. We all got someone else's name (like a secret santa, but we knew who had us and who we have) and we exchanged registry information. Then, we were to go to our person's registry and buy them a gift (under $25), and when you order it, it ships directly to that person's house. Then, we had to wait to open it till yesterday. Then, we all posted pics of the gift we got, and a thank you note to go along with it. It was really fun, and exciting as well. I got an Eeyore doll. The ears are crinkly and the feet each play a different note so the baby can play music and have fun. And the body is very soft and squishy, so she can sleep with it too. It's pretty big, don't let the picture fool you. It also has a hook on the back so you can attach it to a car seat, a stroller or the crib. Frank and the dogs loved it as much, if not more than i do. I hope the baby doesn't have to fight them for it, lol.
We also took the time to figure out how the carseat goes in the car. I thought it was going to be much more complicated, with the strap going here and there, and this attaching to that, and just pretty much complicated that i wouldn't want to take it out once it was put in...but surprisingly, it was very very easy! Whether you use the lapbelt or the latch system, it's very easy. So we took it out and plan to put it back in later.
