Yay for miles to make it Hawaii. That's awesome. :)<br /><br />Sorry about the shower and lack of registry gifts - maybe people bought some of them but forgot to mark it on the registry or bought it from another store/site? Hopefully! I can understand the frustration though. Registries are created for a reason and I'm sure you don't want to spend a ton of money on the things you NEED that nobody else bothered to get.<br /><br />-Lauren<br />www.shootingstarsmag.blogspot.com<br />Shooting Stars Maghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16074581473656321052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7055531662616520992.post-56647011370628046352017-03-30T22:12:41.230-04:002017-03-30T22:12:41.230-04:00When my husband isn't around/traveling, I make...When my husband isn't around/traveling, I make dinners but usually try to be sure they're freezer-friendly.

Luckily between all of the returns, gift cards, and coupons, we probably got about $6-700 worth of stuff that we needed and only paid around $125 out of pocket. We were very excited about it haha. So it might work out better than you're anticipating! I'm due tomorrow (but pretty sure this baby is going to be 13 before he's born) and have no idea what to wear for newborn photos. I'm thinking I'll have to run out and get something loose fitting, because I'm not anticipating loving the fit of any of my pre-pregnancy clothes lol.
