In anticipation for baby's arrival, we have spent some time curating a list of items we anticipate will be well appreciated during baby's first year. If you would like to contribute, please review the lists, below through 2 different retailers. Please note that we have intentionally registered for "duplicate" items by nature of offering them through both retailers. We felt it would be easier to mark the items as purchased, ourselves, or conduct a return, rather than trying to decide which retailer folks prefer to frequent. If you select an item through one and would like to mark as purchased on the other, feel free to do so.
Please know that we are surprise loving people. Adding many of these items felt very peculiar since we would be just as happy with many of the options on the market or even a previously loved item from a friend or family member. Should you prefer to gift outside of this list, please know that your thoughtfulness will be well received and greatly appreciated.
Walmart
UPDATE: Walmart's website promises that they make it easy to see who purchased what. After several customer service conversations, we have discovered that this is unfortunately not a truthful statement. They do not provide a note with shipments, indicating the senders, nor do they provide a place within the website to review the sender's name. At this point, we would discourage you from ordering through this site unless you also send us an email letting us know what's headed our way, so that we can extend our appreciation. If you have already made a purchase, we would welcome the opportunity to thank you for your generosity.

Current Standings
We have been exceptionally blessed to be showered with gifts from friends and family, despite the crazy circumstances we currently find ourselves in. As our due date approaches, we understand that a few folks would like to make sure we have everything we need for baby's arrival. We have done our best to ensure that the registry websites remain updated regarding which items have been purchased or not. If you are curious about a particular item, please feel free to reach out. We would welcome the opportunity to chat with you. We also put together a bullet point list, below to indicate which items we have already received, to give you an idea of what we currently have on hand.
