Rainy Day Shopping

I call it the law of inverse reality. The less money I have, the more I shop. I am totally in the hole right now and yet I'm spending IK's nap cruising the internet rather than cleaning the bathroom, running the roomba, putting away the laundry, etc.

Here's what I have my eye on...

• G Diapers: IK's soon going to outgrow her small sized G's so we need to get some mediums. I keep seeing G diaper banner ads with all sorts of cool colors and prints, but they're not actually for sale on their website. I imagine that maybe they're selling down their current stock (which seems to be dwindling as many of the colors they do have are sold out in certain sizes) in anticipation of launching these new patterns, but come on people don't tease! You know how I feel about delaying gratification.
• Svan Highchair: Yes, you're right, IK's not eating solid food and she can't sit up yet, but the SVAN is on sale!
• Ecotobi Envirosax: Now I know I have PLENTY of canvas bags from professional conferences in which to carry my groceries, but damn, these are cute.
• Some sort of vintage or vintage looking locket that I can put IK's photo in to wear to work (Frau Von Schnellinger... I KNOW I'm a dork so you don't have to tell me).
• Baby food freezer containers: I'm trying to motivate to make some baby food out of this summer's bounty (AKA our CSA stuff that we can't manage to eat in a week). I have a food mill and a food processor, but I need some sort of container to freeze the food in. I could go low cost and get a couple of extra ice cube trays and a box of freezer bags (freeze the food into cube sized servings & then store the cubes in labeled freezer bags). Or, I could get something like these freeze and serve cups. Maybe I'll start with ice trays.
  

Ahhh. There's so much great stuff to buy out there on the internet. Guess I'll go pay my AmEx bill to bring myself back to reality. This is the major perk of going back to work. Give me six weeks of paychecks to dig myself out and this internet shopping train will be back on track!
