Baby Paraphenalia

My house is fast being taken over by baby items. Im in awe because first of all we have not had to purchase a single one of the following items. Second of all, being a minimalist, I cant wait until we are out of this phase of things. This one is not so bad...its a bucket of toys and a play yard that you put the baby under. When she hits the various animals hanging down, they make music an buzz.

Stroller: Thank you so much to E's boss and his wife who purchased our travel system. I love it!

The other part of the travel system...the car seat. Tricked out of course with all her toys!

The excersaucer...ironically the Baby Girl hates it which is too back because she needs to work on her leg strength as she is a little behind on it. Its good for about 7 minutes before the screaming begins. I wonder if she will like it better when it is older. Its so convenient because its right there by my desk and she could play while I do some work!

Swing and Bouncy Seat. These have been life savers. Seriously, we could not have survived the first three months without a swing. Its been a god-send. This one is really a nice one too that someone gave to us. Its got music with three levels of volume, 6 speeds, nature noises if that is preferred to the classical music, and a seat the vibrates. Seriously. I am not kidding!

The bouncy also is so cool with music, volume, and also a vibration button for fussy babies.

Play mat, thank you very much A!! This has been a life saver too and I will miss it when it goes to Houston ('Ouston) with A...not as much as I miss her, but still considerably!

Yes...my house is being over run. Do I mind? Sometimes. Is it worth it? Absolutely!
