Yup, I’m that mom who stayed home with my family and celebrated the New Year in my bed. No shame in that. I don’t need to go out and drink, heck, I’m not even 21 yet. My fiance and I stayed at home, our son was in bed at 7:00PM, so we had the whole night to ourselves. I really don’t have the energy to stay awake to midnight anymore. I made it though, and then at about 12:30AM I crashed. Things become a lot different when you have a baby. I’m exhausted all the time. But you just do what you have to do to make it through the day. I’ve been looking for ideas to do with a 14 month old. I want him to explore things, but what is there to do in the winter with a 14 month old? If you have any ideas, pleaseeeee comment below.
I was thinking today about how so many people buy kids toys. My son literally plays with about two toys all day long. He has so many. I was thinking of writing a blog of things parents think they need, but they really don’t. The media plays such a huge part in what we “need” when having our first baby. But we don’t really “need” it. I saw this thing in Once Upon A Child and Munchkin had this Shower & Rinse Bath Pitcher. I don’t really know why they make parents think they need this toy, but seriously, what ever happened to just using a cup? That’s what I use. Does the same thing. It just baffles me. Please do not fall into all the tricks and ads that these baby manufacturers make you think you need.
I think I’ll make a blog about what not to buy because you don’t need it. Let me gather all the things I’ve found! Happy New Year!!
