Mangled and Missing 01 March 2007

The exersaucer we ordered for Amelia arrived late this evening. UPS delivered it around 7pm and the box was mangled and partly torn open! It was missing only one piece but it is a piece that makes up the leg. The thing functions fine, but one leg is open instead of closed in. It was sort of a pain to put together and it’s not easy to fold down, although I didn’t even know it folded down. I have to go out tomorrow and get batteries cause we don’t have enough. It takes 6 AAA and I could only muster up 2. But that doesn’t matter since it was assembled after Amelia had already fallen asleep. But I think she might like it. Of course, according to the box, she can only grow 4 more inches before she gets too tall for the thing. We’ll see. Maybe she’ll stall in height growth. She’s 4 months old and 26 inches tall!

So that brings up another question…if my child’s carseat says up to 22 lbs and 29 inches tall, then if she’s still only like 16-17lbs but she’s 30 inches long and not yet one year old, what do you do? I guess I’ll be buying a new one when she gets too tall for the one she currently uses, even though she’ll still be within the weight limit.
