Growing Pains
Big changes this weekend at the MacDonald household! Grandma and Grandpa MacDonald delivered the rest of Lillian’s toys from Christmas that wouldn’t fit in the car and we were overflowing with baby stuff. We decided to finally put away stuff that she just didn’t use anymore or was too big for…and yes, this process included some tears! We stored away tiny bottles, pumping stuff, the bumbo seat, play mats, Bobby pillows, and her swing. So many memories from these items! We are a few shirts away from filling a giant bin of clothes that no longer fit our tiny little girl. *sigh* The only way that I was able to overcome the sadness of my baby growing up is that it provided a little more organizational efficiency in our family room. I found a giant basket to hold all of her smaller toys.
I found it at TJ Maxx today, and on the other end it reads ‘My Stuff’ with dog paws all around it. Seriously, who needs a basket this large for dog toys? (Aunt Kristin, you get a free pass on that question!)
Other changes include a new car seat for Lillian. I still think that the whole needing multiple car seat thing is a scam, but whatev. We decided on the Britax Roundabout 50. Did you know that one of my favorite online baby sites, diapers.com, price matches? I found a great deal on a competitors site, and was able to order it through my account on diapers.com! Woohoo! If you are new to that site, feel free to use my referral code, Lisa&Lily , to receive a discount on your first order! Anyway, the car seat will arrive on Wednesday, along with a big girl coat for Lillian since she will no longer be carried around in her warm seat. Big changes. Big changes.

Yeah, I could very easily fill that basket with dogs toys … and then some
I have to say, however, Miss Lillian looks much cuter as it’s contents.
