another tip... try to ignore all the "advice" your family gives you... every baby is different, and every parent is different. do what feels right and you will be ok

good advice here about not buying too much. we went crazy, and at least 95% of the crap we bought was never used.

you can spend $500 on toys, and your baby will probably be just as happy playing with the boxes the toys came in.. my sons favorite toys are hangers... he could care less about the million real toys laying around the house
