The Sacajawea Theory

Ha! I love it. “The Sacajawea Theory, in short, is that all newborn babies really need is boobs. Everything else is just marketing.”

Too true. 13 plus months later, I can think of a few things that never (or rarely) got used. The swing (though Lucy did love the bouncy chair). The plastic bath tub. Too many clothes/blankets. Crib- we still don’t have one. And don’t get me started on toys. Seriously. How many stuffed toys does one baby need?!

On the flip side, the things we used the heck out of: the co-sleeper, Baby Bjorn/Moby wrap, jogging stroller, breast pump.

What do you all think? What ranks as utterly useless baby crap?

Surprise!

Surprise!
It’s been a pretty quiet weekend here at Chez W – especially for G who ended up being super lazy on Sunday.

L’s first walking weekend was just the normal mix of excitement – bike riding, bathtime, playing in the kitchen, going to the park, and playing in the garden for the first time since she grew up.

See it all at Lucy LV.

And She’s Off

OK, it’s only a matter of hours after my earlier post, and the girl is officially walking. As in several steps at once. One side of the room to the other. Repeatedly. Wow. I’m glad I was home with her today as I was able to watch. G came home early and she walked for him first thing. Aw, gee. She is definitely firmly established in “toddlerhood”.
