Britax Roundabout Convertible Car Seat
Mommy and Daddy just got this one for me. (I'm a big kid now!)
They thought they could use my infant carrier longer than 20 lbs.,
but I sure told them! Okay, so anyway, this seat is great!!!
My tushy is cushy and belts are set in a snap! Daddy and Mommy
feel safe with me in this seat, too. It has a five-point harness
and lots of padding around me. Although, this seat does not come with
a cup holder, I still love it. Update: Now that I am a big girl, mom
and dad has switched me to a forward facing position. YIPPPPEEEE! |



Love It! |

BabyBjorn Baby Carrier
Yep, this is the one that everyone is talking about. It can carry me
up to 33lbs...WOW.. (Only 13 more lbs to go before I outgrow this.)
This carrier is extremely comfortable and easy for my mom and dad to put on.
It can accommodate me in facing forward or facing mommy. It has won
over 46 awards...impressive. Not to mention all the positive reviews
it has received on so many sites by other mommies and daddies! Gotta
get one. |

Baby's 1st Jeep Rocker by Kolcraft
What can I say about this rocker, but great! I use it as an infant
seat now (I don't like the vibrating option). I love the toy bar with
a steering wheel where I can put my feet up (as you may have seen in some
of my pictures.) When I get older, I will
use it as a rocking/toddler chair. It will only get 4 raspberries
because after about 4 months of usage, my 1st one broke! But my second
one is working great. Update: Mom and Dad have to watch me
carefully when I'm in this chair, because I like to wiggle around and get
out and about...you can't keep a good woman down...heh heh heh. |



Like It a lot! |

Graco TotBlock Playard Bug Quilt Pattern
My mom and dad got this one for me before I was born. Thanks mom and
dad. (And to the people at Bargain News.) I love my playard.
It has a mirror and crinkly toys attached to the sides of the playard so
that I can occupy time while my parents make my breakfast, oh yeah, lunch
and dinner too. |

John Lennon walker With Music Center (Kolcraft)
Cool! This walker has adjustable heights so that my feet can touch the
ground. In addition, the tunes are great too. Its another toy
that my dad needs to get batteries for. As I get older, my legs are
growing stronger. I only gave it four stars because I can't play with
my toys and use the snack tray at the same time. But right now I don't
snack - only a few teeth. Also, I cannot turn off the tunes once it
starts to play. |

Pooh Play Gym
This is a great little accessory that every baby should have. Of
course because it has Pooh on it doesn't influence my 4 raspberries.
(Wink Wink!). It helps develop gross motor skills and fine motor
skills. (And it's also is another place I can lay down and play!
And who doesn't need a place to lay down and play with Pooh). This
could use a few more Poohs around. |

2 in 1 Discovery Farm Activity Center
This activity center has it all. For now, I can play with all the
different toys attached in addition to the bouncing and swivel chair.
The best activity is staring at my refelection in the mirror, of course!
When I am a bit older, I can have daddy take this apart and it becomes a
interlocking playset with funny farmers and animals, which my parents don't
allow me to play with yet. |

Handi-Craft Dr. Brown Wide Neck 8oz. Bottle
After trying several brands of bottles, my folks finally decided to stick to
this one. It helps to reduce air bubbles (which we know is not very
good for us babies...), gas, spit-ups, and fluid in the air. And it
makes a good chew toy! |



Love It! |

Pali Crib
The quality of this crib really shows.
This crib is sturdy for all the bouncing that I do on it when my parents
aren't looking. There are 3 different height levels for the mattress.
And a very handy storage compartment on the bottom. |

Graco LiteRider Travel System
This is a fantastic ride! It very versatile and functional. It
comes with the car seat base, the stroller, and of course, the car seat
(which my parents have found out that I can outgrow pretty fast). I
absolutely love this system. I can be napping and my parents can take
me in and out of the car without waking me up. Now, how great is
that?! |

Wide Opening Diaper Genie by Playtex
This is great for keeping out the smells from my mommy and daddy's bedroom (cuz
everyone knows that you don't use a changing table, just use mommy and
daddy's bed - especially on daddy's side). However, the refills are
expensive and the container cannot hold that many "muffin" filled diapers.
So I can only give it 3 raspberries. |

EvenFlo Easy Comfort High Chair
This high chair has 2 snack trays. One is removable and the one below
is not. This chair allows you to adjust the height as well as several
recline positions. The positive is that it can be folded easily to
store away in the corner and is fairly comfortable. The bad, the top
snack tray is a little difficult to remove one handed. |

Fisher Price Lights N Sound Aquarium
This item has a fairly soothing selection of sounds from lullabies to ocean
sounds. The motion of the fish circling is very captivating, however,
make sure you have lots of "C" batteries around the house. Otherwise
the fishes don't swim so well and the music gets slurred. Therefore this item will only get
3 raspberries - battery monger. |

Disney Pooh Mobile by Dolly
There are 4 characters included in this mobile, Pooh, Tigger, Piglet and
Eeyore. I love listening to The Winnie The Pooh Theme Song, however,
IT IS TOO SHORT! My mommy and daddy says that they can barely get a
cup of coffee before the mobile stops...hmmm. Maybe that's a good thing...
Heh heh. |

The First Years Tigger Pull-Down Toy
This very versatile toy can be hung on just about anything.
When you pull Tigger's tail (it's not really his tail), a musical tune plays
and soothes everyone. |

Fisher Price Stand-Up Ball Blast
This is a neat developmental toy.
I can either sit-up or stand while playing with the balls. When I drop
a ball down the center chute, music plays and lights flash. Although
it doesn't say I could...but I use it to help me get to a standing position
- but sometimes I tip over...giggle giggle. |

Fisher Price Stride To Ride Walker
This unique toy allows me to get in a
couple of steps while the legs of the toy are open. Then when I am
ready, I can ask mom and dad to close the legs of the toy and then I can sit
and ride on it. Neat! |
