In fact, there are lots of fun things about having kids. See, e.g., experimenting with genetics, warping their little minds, and making them laugh that tinkling giggle. But today I wish to discuss purchases. Specifically, “purchases intended for the baby, but … OMGthat’sawesomeIwantitnow!!”
Want it for the baby, that is.
Our baby is ready to move from her bucket to an actual bathtub. But it turns out that inflatable baby tubs use less water (read: buy us more time to avoid bathtub re-glazing). Sure, it means another purchase of another bathing item, but … OMG,thisone’saDuck!
Also, babies in the tub could receive spout-based injuries. Parents should be responsible and purchase a spout protector, and …

Have you ever bought a “children’s product” because YOU wanted to play with it?
As I live in an apartment filled with toys and not a child in sight, I would say that yes, I have bought several children’s products.
(Funnily enough, I saw the whale faucet cover on one of the sites that I read and I thought it was awesome too.)
That whale is cool, I just ordered it. Thanks Tara! I can’t offer any ideas in return, but I will admit that I sometimes turn my back to James so he can’t see/destroy the giant lego house I’m building before I’m done with it.
Ha ha ha ha ha. You ladies are AWESOME!
I have the little duckie bath tub. I loved taking pictures of my son in it but he outgrew it fast. I never got it out again for my second son. It sure is cute though….xoxoPriscilalittlemissheirlooms.blogspot.com
Those are truly adorable things! And, yes, I have bought stuff ‘for the kids’ that is really for ME!! Muahahaha
I have that duck blow-up bathtub and was just about to get rid of it along with other outgrown things. Would you like it along with another care package of baby clothes? What size is Elsa these days for winter?
Ahahaha, yes, I am like girlonthepark, I buy stuff all the time "for the kids" that have yet to make an appearance….I do this ALL THE TIME and I’m quite sure it will only be worse once I actually have kids and have NOTHING holding me back! hahaha!
