@psw27: Oh yeah that too! I just don't cook so that doesn't come to mind, lol!

@Littlebit7: How do you like peleton? I'm thinking of not renewing my annual pure barre membership, and getting it instead.

@dc yoga bee: it is SO awesome. Do you like spin? It's not super dancy like soul cycle (but I never cared for that too much anyway). The content is awesome, the bike is the best I have ever used. The live component is great for the competitive. But moreso the ability to work out at any time is worth a ton. I've never worked out more or harder in a really long time

@Littlebit7: I love spin! So, I did soul cycle once, and while I am completely into yoga and zen- it was over the top. I still don't know what tap it back means? And the music was so loud, and so dark. I like great heart thumping music, and a high energy instructor as much as the next guy or gal though! I have a brand new treadmill, but my knee has been a bit tweaky now that I'm 29 lol. I go to pure barre 4-5x a week, and they've added a platform cardio class, but even still I'm not getting as much results as I'd like for $2K a year!

Yeah...barre just won't cut it for cardio. I have two knees that have acl repairs so my knees just don't tolerate a ton of running. The bike in general is one of the best low impact (but not no impact like swimming) forms of cardio you can do. I'm a PT by the way.
You could always try the app. It's $12.99 a month. Would give you a taste of what you are in for. Might even be able to coordinate a treadmill workout with the instructors Callouts just vary speed and incline.

@IRunForFun: sorry for the delay! I just got all my emails from today for some reason. She was 8 weeks when I started using it. At that age I wouldn't put her in it and shower because her head was still wobbly. Maybe 2-3 weeks later she was strong enough for me to do that.

@Smurfette: I hope she likes it! R didn't really like the bouncer either because she was too reclined.

@erinbaderin: @looch: I was highly skeptical of the keyless entry but has been pretty amazing. My mom shows up hours before she's expected on a regular basis (often when I'm out) and I just unlock the door from wherever I am and in she goes!
I am paranoid about them failing or some hacker having some crazy device to over ride it and break in, so my husband installed inside locks too. And I'm somewhat concerned about teaching DD the code....

@Mrs. Pickle: Perfect, thanks! Mine is 11 weeks and has really good head control so I think she'll love it!

We have had keyless entry for 8 years and forgot what it was like B.K. So thankful I never have to look for keys. LO has known the code since 4 which is fine until she and the neighbors' kids run in and out of the house. I'm kind of paranoid they might learn it.

@psw27: I think the instantpot is the most overrated item I have ever bought.

@MsMini: The IP marketing via online community is crazy over the top! I do love mine tho!

@MsMini: how funny! I haven't gotten one cause I don't even use my crock pot that much but you might be the first person who has ever said they don't love it.

Soft cups. I used them to get pregnant both times. Pretty life changing I would say.

@psw27: they totally over state how fast things cook. By the time you account for time to come to pressure and release pressure I don't find it all that fast. Plus most things end up swimming in juices and so it all ends up like boiled meat, which isn't my thing. Plus it's a PITA to clean so that's a deterrent for me. I have made a few good things in it but I barely pull it out of the cupboard anymore.

Sposies. Without them we were soaking through jammies and getting sheets wet every night.

Rock n play is the thing that most comes to mind. We didn't even use it for sleep it was just an awesome baby holder.
Close 2nd maybe the Snap N Go. I flew solo with my son a lot in the first year and it was a game changer.

Now I'm naming too many. I love gadgets and gear

I loved the Arms Reach mini cosleeper, but only used it for 6-10 weeks. Thankfully I borrowed it.
