Equipment

Babies need a lot of stuff. And now that Jonie is getting bigger, all the stuff we're acquiring for her is getting bigger, too.

I got this amazing REI backpack for only $50 on craigslist (did I say how much satisfaction I get from a good score on the list?). Tunes loves to be out and about, and this is much easier on me. We decided we needed one of these bad boys at the end of hiking 6 miles with her in the Baby Bjorn. Love the Bjorn... for short trips.

With all the eating Jonie is doing now, it was time for a high chair. Following our friends' lead, we opted for a compact travel chair, rather than a giant "needs-its-own-room" high chair. Jonie loves to be up at the table with us.

And last but not least, our friends Jaime and Laura loaned us the exer-saucer that Simon used to love. I was leery of it at first—mostly because it is gigantic (see comment about high chair above) and looks like a circus—but Jonie loves it. No, LOVES it. She smashes, she spins, she bounces. I mean, check her out:
