Welcome to the Jungle!


We are just now getting started on preparing for our little one's arrival. Until now, I felt like it was too soon. I still have quite a bit of energy so I figured this would be a good time to get everything sorted out.
Oscar was such a good daddy and put together her play gym and swing. They are both from the Rainforest theme. We decided on this one since it has vivid colors that she will be able to distinguish from an earlier age. Also, the little animals are just adorable! There are lots of options out there in lighter colors that are probably more stylish but we preferred something that is not only cute but also more fun for her.
We hope she likes the jungle animals because her crib mobile is from the same theme, too. We figure that a consistent theme is good because she can make friends with the animals and will feel like they are part of the family.
They should be pretty stimulating because the leaves and animals rotate and there are lights and music. There is a nice selection of classical music and nature sounds. I am sure that Oscar prefers that they play "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns and Roses but Mozart and Bach will have to suffice :)
