Inside the Box
Tony hates this, but as much as I don’t actively like it, I would appreciate if people would ask before touching my baby. This way they can see the sign and I don’t have to tell them. I really don’t want to deal with a sick baby. It’s hard enough taking care of a healthy baby.
I don’t know how this is an inkless stamp kit when it refers to the stamping liquid as ink. I’ve opened it up, but can’t quite figure out what’s going on here. It’s got 4 cards to stamp the feet and hands on (which honestly seems impossible with a newborn), and one stamp pad. Two of the cards have graphics, and two are plain.
Ohhh okay. The ink side is down and the pressure of the hand/foot creates the imprint on the other side. Thank goodness there are instructions.
Tony thinks that this is made of poor quality, but I actually think it’s not bad at all. I don’t know what kind of material he’s expecting, but this is pretty solid for a cardboard box. There are also two little envelopes: one for a lock of hair, and one for a tooth. It’s certainly not the worst thing we’ve received, and I think it may be something we (I) actually use.
This is not one of the nicer milestone blankets I’ve seen, but it is very soft. We’ve already used it once since we never actually bought one ourselves and we opened this very close to our son turning 1 month old. I don’t know why they had to put the brand name in the corner. It kind of feels like Loti Wellness (RIP) where they think people want items with their brand. It just makes me want to edit it out.
A cake for a 1 month old? First of all, newborns can’t eat cake. Secondly, I haven’t even come close to recovering yet, never mind actually being able to celebrate the first month completed. We’re both a couple of zombies walking around trying to satiate an insatiable baby. Maybe 6 months would be better. Maybe even a year. In any case, we missed the one month mark. I think these candles are ugly though. They’ve got spots and marks on them and that’s not cool in my books. The gold is a nice colour. I’ll give them props for that.
Overall Impression
This box is actually pretty useful. Maybe it’s because the items can be used in conjunction with another human as opposed to just being used for me, I appreciate it more. I’ll probably end up using everything but the candles. We’ll see.
