We have so many decisions to make and I feel like I have never been more indecisive in my whole life! I can't decide which direction to take the nursery, which carseat/carrier is best, which stroller... the list goes on and on! And while I know we still have some time, its not like we have forever or anything! Eventually time is going to run out! And what if this baby gets here and I don't have anything for him?? I have definite opinions on things I like or don't like... but still- I am having a hard time committing! We haven't bought any of the "big ticket" items yet... we have lots to do! I thought by now we would at least have the name thing pretty well figured out... but as time goes on, the list gets longer and longer instead of shorter! And just so ya know... I am kinda thinking I want the name to be a surprise ... so don't ask :) Its hard for me to say no when people pressure me- but ultimately I don't really want everyone else's opinions! And I want something to be new news to people when we get to call and say "HE's HERE!!! INTRODUCING....." So, I am politely saying- please wait :) Plus- I need more time to decide :)
With that said, there is some advice I am willing to take from all the little mama's out there that might be reading this blog... Did you have a favorite product or item for your little newborn? Any suggestions on something that we just have to have? Anything you didn't know about before baby came that you wish you had?? Do you have a stroller thats amazing? Or a light carseat (is there such a thing?) Can you tell I am starting to get into that "nesting" stage? I don't feel stressed, I just feel like its time to make some decisions and I would love whatever advice someone has for me!
Now to spice things up a little bit, here are just a few pictures of things I want to add to this little man's slowing growing closet :)

Yay, this is so exciting for you guys! Don't over-shop, remember you still have baby showers!!
Tell Jackson Bentley we say hi. We are naming ours the same thing...no, Im not prego. I won't ask you what you're going to name him, but every time I look at you I am going to be thinking it. I'm sorry. I love you and I can't wait to meet the little guy. A mix of Tara and Spencer...oh he is going to be soooo cute!
We should go up to Babinski's in SLC sometime soon..just to look. They have a lot of stuff and you can compare.
With my daughter Jaina, I lugged that heavy "baby bucket" carseat thingy around everywhere! It got so heavy that I ended up getting the stroller out so I could push her... even if it was a quick trip somewhere!
With Jayce, I used a mei tai wrap and always just took him out of his carseat. I loved it! I really would suggest some type of baby wearing sling. They make life so much easier!
I'm so excited for you! Give my Grandma a hug, okay?

What fun decisions you get to make! It was so fun to see you on Saturday. I can't wait to hear what his name is!
