We're attempting to raise our baby - a boy - for one year on everything borrowed, some things blue. We're hoping to borrow, rent or buy used everything from baby clothes to furniture to diapers. We're first time parents, living in New York City, and hope this little experiment will help us enter parenthood with a bit more awareness and a lot more humility.

Visiting Doda Eva and Uncle Marty

We had a great trip to Omaha to visit with Uncle Marty and Doda Eva and, of course, Baron. The EBB swam in a pool for the first time, had a wonderful massage, discovered a love for tofu, and spent lots of time playing in the living room. It was a great relaxing trip and we wish were back there right now. Here are more pics and videos.

Getting Around the Hard Way

The Everything Borrowed Baby isn't crawling, but he is managing to get around - somehow - scooting, lunging, pushing, pulling - and spinning:

In boxes and shopping charts






As the weather got warmer we seemed to find lots of boxes and shopping carts in which to put the EBB. And I love the muscle shirt!
