Here's a top 10 list of things mommy can't live without. She told us and so we figured we'd put it on the blog. There's more that mommy can't live without but these are just we thought she needs/likes the most.
10. Long sleeve white onesies. She puts them on us under our t-shirts. She said we have so many cute t-shirts it's a shame to put them under a warmer shirt. So she puts the warmer shirt under the cute one.
9. Swings. Never underestimate the power of a swing. Sometimes she uses the jump-up for a swing in the doorway. Instead of having our feet hit the floor so we can jump she pulls the straps up so we can swing and watch her do stuff in the kitchen. (not cook though...mommy doesn't cook very well).
8. Dishwasher. 25 + bottles a day. Enough said.
7. Washer/Dryer. 2 + loads of laundry a day. Enough said.
6. Baby Einstein DVD's. We know TV is bad...mommy tells us. But sometimes if we're all really cranky and mommy has to gather her thoughts she can put on a DVD and we'll watch it. Oh...she's in the background telling us to say that no one is allowed to comment about this. She has 3 babies and sometimes rules need to be broken.
5. Baby Einstein Mobile for our cribs. Why? Because you don't have to wind it up! This is 2008...why do wind up toys still exist? The Baby Einstein mobile has a button. You push it and it plays Motzart, Bach and Beethoven for 15 minutes before you have to push the button again.
4. Stain remover. Mommy doesn't like it at all when we get our clothes stained. She has to make sure she sprays everything before it goes in the laundry to be washed. And yup...prune juice sure does stain. (But she keeps giving it to us!)
3. Strollers. We love to stroll and mommy loves to walk so strollers are a must. We have a single, double and triple stroller and mommy uses them all!
2. Books. Mommy loves to read to us and books are a must. That's why they're #2 on the list.
And the #1 thing mommy can't live without is.......................................................................
1. The Mom Van (aka: the minivan). It's very nice and even though we love to walk - we need to drive places too. Without the mom van we sure wouldn't be going very many places. We even heard mommy say that we were worth selling her mustang!!!! That's love.

ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm going to break your rule and comment about Baby Einstein DVD's. :o) They are a GODSEND! We called them the electronic babysitter! Even with just one baby, sometimes it was the only way to get things done! Don't let anyone tell you that they never do that stuff, because they are lying! :o) And by the way, I just got my first loser cruiser (minivan) and I LOVE it! :o)
