My son just sent me a couple of links for gifts he is thinking about for his first nephew/niece .. thought I'd share

The baby keeper.. I mean really it's hard to potty with a baby in your arms:  http://www.adventuredad.com/archives/babykeeper-hang-your-baby-on-the-wall/

Now this one I voted for:  http://davengrace.com/dave/babymop.html

This one made me laugh:  http://www.spencersonline.com/product/two-front-teeth-pacifier/

The Baby Keeper... I can see it now.... Daddy takes his little one out for a bit. Needs to use the potty. Puts little one on back of door.... Leaves, accidentally leaving Jr. Hanging on the back of the door.... Next guy comes in has the you-know-what scarred out of him when baby hits him with a pacifier!!!! LOL

Hanging the baby on the wall sounds perfect for gym lockers and bathroom stalls.  :)

And for those teen mothers among us, just put the baby in the locker

*** disclaimer: no babies were injured in the making of this joke ***

Oooh I really like that baby hanger.  "Mommy will be right back, just hang out here for a moment"  Hah

Seriously, with a crawler in the house, I don't get anything done b/c I'm following her around. I wish she'd follow ME around. Then I can do things like laundry, clean, shower...

The hanger does have its perks.

What about that leash?  Man, they sound like a good idea but when you see them in public -- just looks a little awkward lol

My little brother was  severely hyperactive had A.D.D. too but that part was unheard of soooo many years ago... My parents for his own safety did use a leash.. when they were busy they'd hand him off to me and my sister like he was the family pet... so we would tie him to a tree and play on the swing set... I wonder if that had a lasting affect.

That's really funny, Laurie! My parents didn't do that with us and when I see them around I think it looks a little odd, but I also think "Wow, what a great idea! The kid can't get away!"

no he couldn't.. I tied really good knots

Somehow I see you accidentally leaving him there...

my brother loves me :)  it's not like I didn't give him a cookie or anything to prevent him from telling my parents

Did he have to "sit," "roll-over" or "play dead" to get that cookie? lol
