The Crib

Yo, we picked a crib! Whoa, it was tough work.

{Before we begin let me clarify the above. "We" means Kelly and "it" means the hours that Kelly spent on the internet and elsewhere searching for a crib. "tough work" means the far fewer amount of hours (though still hours) that I spent considering and appreciating all of the "we" and "it" of picking a crib. There.}

For the uneducated, crib manufacturers don't care about your baby, last year. That means that any crib made last year is inherently defective. Bad news for last year's children. It turns out that the cribs made and sold just last year have been recalled. I am at a loss for thoughts besides perplexity, if that's really thought. How is it that the crib cannot be made safe once and for all? Think of all of last year's kids (LYKs).

What this all means to me is that picking a crib is not just a matter of price, color, or shape (usually square-ish). Picking a crib means cross-checking it for safety. I really don't think the shape of babies has changed in a few thousand years, why can't every crib be safe without the hassle.

Check you later, homies.
