Our house resembles an infant daycare. It is astounding to me that one 8 lb. child needs so much equipment. Well, maybe I should qualify that....maybe it is not so much need, as want....or maybe it is a combination of both. At any rate, having adopted my bundle at the age of 2 did not bring on things like swings and Pack n Plays and changing tables....oh my!
My daughter and I have successfully read a lot of directions and used our brand new, handy-dandy electric screwdriver many times and in many ways. As a team, we work well together. I am convinced that this equipment comes in several small pieces as a practice for parenthood. If the caregivers can successfully maneuver the directions that are written in five different languages, come out even on all of the screws and bolts, and snap the sides of the pack n play before they push down on the bottom, they may have some success at 2 am when the baby decides to clear out his lungs for no apparent reason....
We shall see.
Baby time is coming soon. The baby shower is this weekend, and my fun and entertainment for Saturday surrounds installing three car seat bases in three different models of cars.
Pray for me.
