Ok here is my opinion on your registry -
#1 - I love all the pink. But agree with everyone that you may want to get some things neutral incase you do have another child - but ultimately it's up to you and you want pink :-)
#2 - A PP said something about not getting a changing table. I don't know how I would live without mine. It keeps everything organized so that you DON'T have diapers and wipes all over the house. When the baby needs to be changed - it takes less than a minute to pick them up and carry them to their changing table. I love mine.
#3 - You already added a bumbo - wonderful invention! So great that we have 2 - one for home and one for when we travel - it always stays in the car.
#4 - I wouldn't go crazy on one type of bottle. Put a few different types of bottles on there. I was set on using Vente Air's and got like 4 of the gift packs. I ended up switching because the oz's rub off after like 5 washes and I'm not a good guesser when it comes to oz's - LoL. Drew loves the NUK bottles - they're a little expensive but I get $3.00 off coupons on them all the time, so it makes it $2 for a 10oz bottle. Same with pacifiers - we have a ton and Drew will only take 2 of them SOMETIMES. He's weening off of them already so having a ton is pointless. Same thing goes for diapers - you may find that Pampers don't work for you and Huggies do or vice versa.
#5 - The sling carrier - I had to have one and I used it once. When he was born I didn't feel like he fit in it right and then when he got bigger - he moved so much it wasn't comfy to wear. The front carrying one is great. I use mine all the time.
#6 - I don't have the Diaper Champ, but I have the Genie and I really like them. The only time it smells is when you change it. But I bought this baby powder scented air spray from the $$ store, I spray a little of that before I change the Genie and I don't smell anything.
#7 - Swaddlers - we got a ton of them for Drew and never used them. We swaddled him in blankets and he liked that much better - that could just be him though.
Drew is now starting to enjoy his swing. He had a bouncer for the longest time but is outgrowing it so we put him in his swing and he loves that. He has a swing that his legs hang from - he doesn't like the ones where it's like he is laying down. Make sure you get a lot of plain white onesies, bibs for when she starts drooling, a mobile (Drew LOVES his,) and umm, I can't think of anything else right now.
Items we didn't use but got - bottle warmer (works like crap,) microwave sanitizer (so much easier to just put them in a big pot and boil them, and ummm again I cna't think of anything else. It's been a LONG day!

Thanks lady!! I agree I think I will deff need a changing table! I think I am going to switch to a genie because the champ got bad reviews on the site.
My cousin already bought this LO a swing, as soon as she found out the sex she ordered it LOL.
I really liked the sling carrier when I saw it, but a lot of ppl tell me to just get the front carrier, I might leave it on there, I'm not sure yet.
when I was registering some lady was singing praises about the bottles I put on the reg. I am totally CLUELESS about bottles, I guess it will just be trial and error!
here's the swing my cousin bought for her-- I think it's sooo cute!!

That is very cute.
As for the Diaper Genie - I love mine. I don't know anyone with a Champ, but I read a few reviews from Mom's on here and I seem to remember them being good because you didn't have to buy special bags or something. But I don't mind paying $5 every few weeks.
Seriously for the bottles - buy a small pack of a few different bottles - it really is a trial and error.
