So (ouch) true! My best advice for that growing mound of toys is to divide it into halves. Put one half into storage for a month (or six) and then switch. Your baby thinks it's Christmas.

Your description of the walk down the Toys R Us aisles brought back a memory for me. My husband and I were shopping for a stroller for baby #1 and then he casually mentioned we'd need socks too. I had a huge meltdown because I did not compile a list yet, or didn't have it with me - can't remember which one, and I remember saying - there is so much more this baby will need besides a stroller and a pair of socks and I remember feeling totally panicked and overwhelmed. The end.

I swear we have a mischievous ghost who plays tricks on us, bringing new crap into our toy bins and taking off with other things that we spend days searching for.
