The story of me by me! Mom and Dad met cute in the emetgency room after they both ate bad sushi. Things got mushy (yick), they got married and after an appropriate time, enrolled in how-to-raise-a-baby-school. It took Dad threetimes to pass the final, but they eventually received their diploma. Armed with their paperwork and a money order, they went to the post office and ordered a baby! Six to eight weeks later, a box arrived from Battle Creek, Michigan... it was me! Dad: Why didn't I pay extra for that 'sleeps through the night upgrade?

That upgrade is totally worth it.
I bought my first one at Target and the second at Costco. When they’re being especially trying, I tell them I’m going to find my receipt and return them. (don’t worry, they don’t believe me and only laugh)

even after all these years, the name Battle Creek Michigan still conjures up magical memories of sending away for cool stuff advertised on the backs of Kellogg’s cereal boxes…….

We’re still looking for the ‘neutral’ switch on my grandson. He has 2 speeds – ZOOM and sleep.

I have a swelling belly, ongoing nausea, and a raging UTI that says, “dang, I wish it worked Baby’s way!”

Considering my first cradle was a huge, blanket-filled gateway computer box, this doesn’t surprise me at all!
