And the shopping begins...


Like excited parents-to-be, we are looking forward to shopping for Sobie's essentials.  B's visit to SG is just timely for my gestational diabetes test (which by the way I pass with flying colors!) as well as Takashimaya's Baby Fair.  Whoever said shopping for baby is a piece of cake is seriously wrong!!!  We had to make a few rounds before deciding which one to buy. 





So here's what we got for Sobie:

Graco Mirage Travel System - we got it for 19% off, it was originally $479, now it's down to $389. :)

Graco Pack 'n Play® Playard - another one essential item for Sobie, it is a bassinet and playpen in one, so it's more sulit.  I like the fact that it is compact and easily collapsible, definitely suited for our on-the-go lifestyle.

Perfect for traveling, this mesh-sided Pack 'n Play® playard sets up in less than a minute. We're sure that the Pack 'n Play® playard will quickly become one of you and your baby's favorite Graco® products. This Pack 'n Play® playard comes with a full-size bassinet with comfy quilted bumper pad and mattress pad, a great place for infants up to 15 lbs to nap peacefully and drift off to dreamland with the nature sounds or music from the electronics unit or just gaze happily at the soft, detachable toys hanging from the included mobile. The changing station supports babies weighing less than 25 lbs. and the parent organizer holds many of your diaper changing essentials. A convenient travel bag is also included - just fold the Pack 'n Play® playard , stow it in the bag, and you and your little one are off to see the world.
