And those big TV's that must have weighed 50 pounds or more that sat on corner of a wobbly table just waiting to topple over on us as we drove our cars around on our knees.

And I loved to break (accidently of course) the thermometers to play with the mercury.

Now, the cribs have to be almost empty and baby sleeps on his back all the time. Hopefully the cases of SIDs are going down.

I still make baby quilts for newborns but I add a sleeve on the back and include instructions on how to hang it.
