Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

LOVE that giraffe teether. I have friends with a running giraffe theme (dating back to when husband/father was 5). Their current little one's a little too old for it, but I know they're hoping to try for another soon. Guess I've got my 1st baby shower gift picked out!

Strix, her mom thinks she has a lot of books already. So I'm probably going to avoid that.

Epic, good idea! I love those.

javachick. That is out of my price range.

Scrappy, I think that teether was on the mom's registry, but I'll check.

In it never hurts to check news, amazon is refunding us the money for the compost bin we broke (through our own fault) after owning it for less than a week. Go, amazon!

I have an iphone app called "pink pad" and it sends notifications:

"Aunt Flow is coming!"

and holy fuck - it was correct.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Rose's favorite toys right now (6 1/2 months) are a couple of rattles, a big plastic key ring (basically a teether), and a puppet, though that last one is dependent on having Mama or Daddy around to animate it. I like the giraffe teether -- so cute!

I don't know what your budget is, but I always like to give those very soft foamy large letters/numbers interlocking "floor tiles". I figure they do triple duty as toy, soft place to play on, and learning tool.

Ooh, those look great, javachik. A friend of mine has something similar and I really like them. We could really use something like that to extend the spaces where Rose can roll around on the floor. Maybe I'll suggest them to my mom for a holiday present!

sj, we love Haba brand toys, especially the wooden ones [link] They aren't cheap, but Amazon carries them so you may save a few bucks that way. We have this one and Shane loved it: [link] All the little pieces turn and it's just adorable and really well-made. I'm sure they have a girly version.

Glamcookie, those toys look great. I'm browsing them now.

Trust my rage

Oh, we love Haba toys too! There is fabric flower and a wooden triangle thing that all three kids have loved. I also have a cool, wooden, baby version of a rainstick that Sammy loves. Not sure where to find that, though, as i got it on zulilly.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Closet update. It has been cancelled. They could not do the panel doors with that large of an opening. So much for a custom shop. Very disappointed, and very frustrated.
