We just had this one of these baby beds delivered to the house. Here’s what it looks like:

This baby bed definitely has great potential to be awesome. When I first looked at it, I was excited to see that it is suppose to help infant colic, infant reflux, restless sleepers, and short nappers. Since my son fits 3 of the 4 of those things, I thought this would work perfect for us.  It is endorsed by both Dr. Sears and JPMA.  It took Bill about twenty minutes to put it together.  The directions were pictures, so they were super easy to follow.

I wish we had this 5 months ago when he was first born.  This would have worked great for our needs back them.  Will still suffers from GERD.  However, the only problem I have is that Will is too big for this.  Will has recently (within the last week) figured out how to sit up.  He also immediately tried to roll over in it and screamed when he got stuck.  It says that you can use this up until 12 months, but I don’t see how that is possible.  However, if this was the bed he started with, it may have made a difference.

Overall, I would get this for a new baby.  Its design and assembly are nice and easy.  It also keeps your baby on its back (which helps prevent SIDS) and helps with a variety of other issues.  Sleeping babies are always a good thing.

I understand being a pet lover even though I am not one. However, would you save your pet over your child? Would you forget that your child was even in the house?

I came across this story yesterday where a couple in Beaver County, PA, got their dogs out of their burning mobile home.  However, Crystal Adams and James Chandler forgot his 4 year old son.  After being asked repeatedly if anyone else was in the mobile home, they remembered after twenty minutes that the boy was in his room.  A firefighter thankfully went in and saved the boy.  He ended up getting treated for smoke inhalation.  Crystal and James were charged with reckless endangerment.

I seriously cannot understand this.  How do you forget your child? How do you get your dogs out before your child?  As many of you know, I am not a pet lover, so maybe I am missing something here.  The cause of the fire is still under investigation.  I am hoping when they figure out what caused fire, this story doesn’t take another sad turn.

I have several questions for my readers especially the pet lovers (since I am so not a pet lover). If your house was on fire, who would you save first – your pets or your kids?  Also, would you forget that your child was in the house?
