As long as no one is creeped out by my putting a human head replica on my child's wall, this makes sense.

eek.

I don't think you would need to be a super DIYer. It's really just a series of rectangles. It would be a little time-consuming but as long as you don't rush it, a beginner sewer could so do that!

I think it is unfortunate that you all are missing the meaning behind Erica Jong's article that her daughter articulated very well:

"Ironically, it was because of my mother's hard work that I have the life I do now. She worked hard so that the women of my generation could have the choice to work or to stay home. She slept in hotel rooms in San Diego so that I could cuddle with my own children. She spoke to large groups of women in Toledo so that I could work at the school book fair. We can devote ourselves to our work, or we can decide to be 1950s June Cleaver types. And that's because of the sacrifices that my mom and her feminist comrades made.

My mother made sacrifices so that I could have choices, and perhaps that makes her a better mother than I will ever be."

I like the Click the camera idea, as well as the rescue pack. I think the key is lots of wildlife animals (maybe a stuffed baby jaguar?) and Diego colors. But also have a few pictures of Diego somewhere. Your son wants a Diego specific party, so obviously it's important that his favorite animal rescuer shows up :)

The Museum of Science was amazing. The aquarium was a little too crowded for my tastes. The brookline booksmith is great. There's a fantastic park right down the street with a beautiful mural my son loved. Don't forget the Ducklings. And I loved the Curious George book/toy shop in Cambridge.

We took our son when he was 12 mo, and we took his car seat just for the cab ride we had to take into the city from JFK. A quick cab ride across town without one is OK. But if you've seen the way the drivers are getting into the city you'll want him restrained!!

I like occasional articles like this. It adds a level of depth and discussion that wouldn't normally be there in a design blog. Quit whining

I suppose it's a bonus that they're great quality, but who keeps a crib forever!? I mean it's something I used for a year and then couldn't wait to get rid of. The only option you have is to pass it around family, but how often do people refuse to buy used cribs for safety reasons? I don't know, it's beautiful and I'd love to have such nice things but That's one month's rent right there!

impractical for sure. my bathroom is like 4x4 if you don't include the bathtub. i wouldn't be able to open the door. and they also seem like they might be hard to clean.

when you need more counter space use the top of your washer and dryer. I know it sounds silly. But buy two big cedar cutting boards and put them on top, and there ya go! Instant counter tops. lol
