At risk of being tacky…. July 10, 2009

Since I’m neither registering or having a shower for lil Mowgli, I thought I’d share the few things that we still need.  He doesn’t need much, as I have learned to become pretty minimalist as far as infants go, and most of what he needs we’ve been lucky enough to find secondhand.  He has quite a bit of clothes to get him started already, and don’t forget, Christmas will be right around the corner for the “fun” stuff like baby toys, most of which I have gotten rid of.

We need/want/can really use:

Evenflo Titan Elite Convertible Seat – Madagascar

or

Evenflow Titan Advance Convertible Seat

We are only getting the one seat and it will last him until well into toddlerhood. We are not getting a baby bucket that goes in and out of the car, and these are both VERY padded, which we hope will make him happier on long trips to visit relatives.   Since our shopping options are limited, we found them at Kmart but they are out of stock and there is not really anywhere else in town to look for one. Perhaps you would have better luck elsewhere.

We are cloth diapering again! Trouble is, most of what I used before is pink or purple, so I”m sure he’d like to have something a bit more macho covering his bum.  These are the diapers we want to use:

They are currently running a special even!

We need a new monitor set up. Our old one lasted through 3 kids, it’s time for a new one with a long range.  We would like two recievers so we each can have one if we are outside working.  Again, Kmart was the only place we looked, but this one seems to have both a long range, dual recievers and in addition has the light features which are nice.

Fisher-Price Dual Sound and Lights Monitor:

Our room theme is intended to be “Disney’s Jungle Book”. However, since we are on a time crunch, we aren’t going to be able to do the mural for that, and since this is not a popular Disney movie right now, there is not a line of decor to help us out. So, for now anyway, we are just going to do solid colors of royal blue and lime green, picking up the colors that are in his hammock. (Yes, we are not having a crib for this one).   If you find things with the Disney’s Jungle book theme though, we’d be pretty excited about it.

Yep, that’s it. That’s all I can think of that we need. See, not much at all, right?  However, we need to focus our funds on completing his bedroom–which still doesn’t even have all the walls or a window yet–so if anyone wants to help us out with these few items, it would be a big help.  In lieu of that, anyone want to come down and help build walls and paint?
