Not a pack'n'play, but a playpen





So stubborn. For me, there is no Adventure Outpost. It's Teepee Village. There are no In-pursuiters. They are Interns. And there are no pack'n'plays, but there are playpens. And now, Rob and I have one... a playpen. Our cousin forwarded on the information about a lightly used playpen from a woman in her Twins Club, and we jumped. It took us (Who am I kidding? It took Rob...) a bit (Which he wants me to quantify as two minutes.) to figure it out, but now it's set up in the living room. Now what? We have no kid yet. Are we going to pack this plastic and nylon beast up or leave it in the middle of our highest traffic area just to stare at for a couple of dreaming days? Probably the latter.

We are waiting, which means that we think of each little step as a huge one. A playpen! We are well on our way to becoming parents now, right?

Hi there - I just came across your blog and it looks like you are from WI and at the same point that we are. We live in Racine and have been on the waiting list (different agency) for a little over 3 mos now. Hoping to have a referral before the end of the year. Where in WI do you live? Looking forward to following your journey!
