Which Crib to Choose?

Well the Ma&Be store (Mother and Baby) had quite a selection of these swinging cribs. How should one choose which one? Price, colour, size, safety, sturdiness, weight? Well, when Tri spotted the name of this one (in red in the photo at right), he decided that this was the one we should buy, and so we did! It's actually the same brand as the one that we currently have. In making the purchase, the enclosed instructions list their website (www.longhung.com) and it turns out the main office is right here in the same suburb of Saigon that we are living. So we may well be able to go purchase the spare part required to fix the first one that is broken.Our friend, Nat, suggested we just keep using the broken crib and swing it by hand.......ha ha ha ha!!!! No, we treasure our sleep. Cai has been asleep now for over four hours! A RECORD! So we're pretty happy with the purchase. When she gets old enough to roll over, then we'll look at unplugging the electric motor, but till then, swing on!
Our two kids are enjoying interacting with each other. I suspect that this blog will end up having several photos of the two of them together. Here is a shot just before we took them down to the pool to play and tire them out before their afternoon nap. It looks like Tri is holding on to his sister and giving her the lay of the land!
