We did try to go to a dvr offered through the satellite system, but couldn't navigate it as easily.  Tivo is really easy to use, and it pretty straight forward. I love how easy it is to record things, and to always have something my kids can watch at the touch of a button.  Even my kids can use the remote.  We have the 80 hour one, and have never had it full. ...

I needed a new seat when I had my suprise number 5 boy.  I researched getting a new seat since I had gotten rid of my baby stuff because I thought we were done.  Well, I decided on this seat as my boys start out just tiny, but by the time they are 6 months they are already 20 pounds and need a new seat, and with this seat they would have until they were 30 pounds.  I chose a fabric that was breathable so he wouldn't sweat too much, and had great padding. I love this seat, and he is still using it and he just turned one.  This is the most use one of my babies has gotten out of a seat.  I also love the front harness adjuster on this seat as I can make sure that he is in his seat with the straps tight every time.  Also, it was very easy to install as it has the built in lock off on it. Again, I love this seat~!...

I thought that the seat was easy to use, and loved that it had the front harness adjuster to make sure his straps were tight no matter what he was wearing.  He was always comfortable in it, and it wasn't too difficult to install properly. I really loved this seat....

He was probably about 3 or 4 months when he started actually enjoy the bouncer, and then at about 6 months he couldn't use it anymore because then he was sitting up. The things I don't like about the bouncer is that it sits too upright and made the baby hunch over and fold himself at odd angles when he was still small. He like to bounce and he liked the vibration when he was little little like about 2 or so months, but didn't have the neck and back strength then to sit up enough and like I said before I would always look down at him and he would be hunched over asleep. Other than that he did love the seat when he was older....

I am very pleased with it, and get no interference from anything.  It is perfectly clear in reception. Also, my model has a vibration setting so that you can have the volume down but still know when baby gets to crying.  Also, you can take it outside with you when doing yard work or something, and it works then as well.  I also like that you can have the monitors plugged in, or you can have them just run on batteries. It is a nice compact monitor system and it works well. I also love that it has 2 receivers so I can leave one with hubby and he can get baby sometimes too....
