Noisy Toys

I've been pregnant for thirty weeks. Despite what I've heard about pregnancy taking forever, this pregnancy has flown by. Only ten weeks before baby arrives -provided he stays put until my fortieth week- and I feel like there are an infinite number of things to do before his arrival.

Babydaddy and I have registered for our baby shower. That process, which I think has taken us over five hours collectively, was fun and stressful. We want to cover all our bases and make sure baby has what he needs to be comfortable and cared for. We also don't want to appear greedy, maniacally rubbing our hands together and cackling at the booty we've amassed. Realistically, babies only need so much and we only have so much space to store baby's goods.

Looking at some toddler toys, just for fun, we saw a dolphin ride-on toy. Given the limited space in the house, this toy would never work for us. Babydaddy imagined the little monkey trapped in the hallway, sideways, à la Austin Powers in the first film. Our kid is lucky though. We don't hate musical, noisy toys. We like some of them. A lot. But we'll buy them. Don't buy them for us. We're good.
