Ken and I wanted to share with everyone two of the baby items that my parents have bought for baby MaKenna. My dad (Mike) visited in July and while he was here he bought the mattress, mattress pad, and themed crib sheet to complete the crib. It is amazing the difference it makes actually having a mattress in the crib. Who would have thought? :) Since receiving the mattress and accessories, I have made a simple dust ruffle.
My mom (Cindy) wanted to purchase the travel system (stroller and car seat) for baby MaKenna. Originally, I (Ken liked it too) had picked out a Baby Trend jogger travel system. But, when we went to the store to play with it and see how easily it was to fold and use, we were disappointed. We discovered that it was bulky (which I guess most joggers are) and the the jogger didn't fold very easily. Also, we couldn't get the car seat out of the base to put it in the stroller. What a bummer!
Our second choice of travel systems was a combi (Ken's sister Alison had a combi and LOVED it. She is the one who told us about them.) so I found one that we both liked and told my mom about it. The travel system arrived about two weeks ago. Of course we assembled it right away and play around with it in the living room. Below is a picture of the car seat separate from the stroller and then another with the two as one. The red bag on the back of the stroller is a stroller diaper bag that I purchased off of amazon. It is flat like a messenger bag and attaches to the handle of the stroller. What a perfect match!
