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.
Within days of arriving in CA for a much needed vacation, the EBB learned to sit up on his own. Yeahhhh!! Nothing like the CA sunshine to inspire greatness.
After a post birthday party nap, Danny and I took the EBB to the park for a little fun. Love the pics of him on the swing - wee! And the video of him on the slide:
We had a few of the grandparents over for a little mother's day/first birthday celebration a few days before the EBB's actual birthday. The pics in the post are his first experience with mac and cheese! Wish we had taken more pictures of the whole family, but here are a few of the birthday boy and two of his grandpas.
We're late 30-somethings, living in New York City, about to become first time parents. Danny is a teacher and Michelle is an environmentalist and we're going to see if we can raise our kid on everything borrowed...for at least a year, and not totally annoy our friends and upset our family.
