We came downstairs today more or less for the first time since we brought Conrad home, and found it much as we had left it. It was nice to get out of the bedroom, which had taken on a sort of hospital room aspect.
Of course that meant we had to move a subset of Conrad’s support kit downstairs with us: diapers, wipes, cloths of various descriptions and purposes. We try to be pretty tidy and clutter-free, and I can already see how that’s going to go.
Now we may be using disposable diapers, but that’s okay, because we’ve got the Fisher Price Rainforest Swing. It’s got pictures of an endangered tree frog and a white tiger, so that makes it environmentally friendly.
