To think how much has been added in the past 9 years ( my time frame)...... Keep it simple: invest in a great carseat and stroller, good diapers and get a library card!<br />~ kristenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725946434224301568.post-77003577770449743792012-02-16T11:55:34.934-05:002012-02-16T11:55:34.934-05:00You hit the nail on the head!

My attitude is the same...pots&pans, spoons, boxes...the best toys in the world.Nancy Fullernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725946434224301568.post-69076658061103099312012-02-16T10:38:31.883-05:002012-02-16T10:38:31.883-05:00When I have kids (your grandkids) I won't skim...When I have kids (your grandkids) I won't skimp on safety, but I agree that less is more.

While board books are great with babies who would chew and rip regular books, I have wondered for a long time what ever happened to the "Little Golden Books" that never cost more than the change in your pocket. Good news: I've recently seen them at Meijer! When I shop for baby showers, I always choose a gift that I know is useful. When possible, I pick something from the registry... but not always! ;-)Carlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10784084405182900836noreply@blogger.com
