I covet...

It seems that whenever I go to other moms' house, I end up wanting something they have. A particular toy. A feeding device. A bathseat. Something.

This week it was a play yard. A play yard is a big gate thing to keep your kid contained and safe if you have to run to the bathroom, check the mail or if you are a twin mom, deal with the other twin. I have one. I got mine used from another twin mom. It's boring, ugly and reminds me of puppies. My friend Kym has another kind. It's colorful, exciting and has a gate (so you can just open it up rather then bend down each time.)

I suppose I don't really need one (since I have one that I don't even use yet since our house is so small), but that didn't stop me from coveting it. It sure was pretty. And almost as cool as her hands-free safety gate.

Ahhhhh....
