Bringing Up Baby

Documenting the baby makin' experience. From Trying to Conceive, to Bringing Up Baby, I share all the laughs and all the horror.

I'm Jess, I'm 30 years old, I live in Minneapolis with The Husband, Jack (the girl dog with a boy name), and The Mac -- the person we made. He's pretty much the most awesome human being alive and easily the greatest thing I've ever done.

If you're interested, my primary blog is Scattered Jigsaw Thoughts.

For the last few weeks, whenever I’m on amazon.com (which is often), I take a few minutes to browse for some gift ideas for Mac and put stuff on a wishlist.  Friends and family are always asking for ideas for gifts for him, and I figure the wishlist is the best way to keep track of gift inspiration.

Today, I was forwarding the wishlist on to my brother, when I realized that one of my dream items for Mac was marked down in a big way.

The TP Activity Spiro Bouncer. Or as I like to call it? The Bouncy Teeter Totter.

You guys, how amazing does this thing look?  How much fun would Mac have playing with it with the other kids I take care of? How jealous will I be when I realize it’s too small for me to play with?

It was originally priced at $79.99, but was marked down to $55.51 when I decided to add it to Mac’s Wishlist. Now? It’s a mere $38.86. 

I know it’s frivolous and stupid and has zero educational or developmental qualities, but Mac NEEDS it! I’m sure of it!  This is one of those times I wish I wasn’t so practical and could just impulse buy it for him.  It just looks like SO. MUCH. FUN!!!

I should probably stop toy shopping for my kid based on stuff I’d like to play with if I were his size, huh?
