I have the Droid Maxx, which I bought because I was tired of the limited battery life of my Droid 4. Most of my bluetooth accessories are for Androids, so I stuck in the same family.

I once looked a notorious ( in Texas anyway ) serial killer right the damn eyes-on accident of course. His name was Kenneth McDuff. My mother and I were on a tour of the Ellis Unit outside of Huntsville, Texas. ( aka the now former Death Row for male inmates ), and was in the infirmary with my tour group. McDuff happened to be in there at the same time we were. ( I don't remember exactly why he was there ). I happened to glance up and look around. He was staring right at me. His eyes were devoid of anything resembling color....except they were rimmed with red. Scary. Super scary. I was freaked out. I held it together until the tour was over.
Side note: one of the rules during the tour: no eye contact with inmates. Oops. 
I woke up in between a memory and a dream...

I've never had any major issues with my kids, unlike what I dealt out to my parents as a teen. But that doesn't mean that I haven't had to stand firm and tell them point blank that I thought my generosity or efforts were being taken for granted. Parents don't expect their kids to bow down to them for everything we do, but there does come a time when it better be recognized or I will be up in their faces explaining the facts of life.
But honestly letting your kids get beaten up a few times by their own poor decisions is sometimes more helpful then paving the way for them.

Walking and holding my husbands hand on the beach.In a bathing suit and just feeling the waves and the breeze of the ocean.
Looking forward to our sailing trip in thie British Virgin Islands next month. Won't be down to near where I need to be - still I should be about 30-35 pounds lighter than when we made the reservations and should fell much more comfortable in my summer clothes that were too tight last year. Also looking forward to spending many, many weekends on our sailboat and pontoon boat docked at Lake Lanier (GA) and playing with my 3 grandkids.
Also, if my husband can ever get his back and should okay, riding with him on his Goldwing should be much more comfortable than before too.
What a fun topic!

I have the droid ultra and the wife has the droid mini. Essentially the same phone but the mini is smaller. We both like them very much. I used to have an iphone and love the bigger screen of the droid ultra.
Looking forward to wearing a flattering dress at my sister's wedding and looking good in the pictures!!!!

Yes they grow up way too fast. My Mom still calls me her baby girl, I'm the youngest of 3. We are really close too.

When I had my daughter we were living in a tiny studio! We did have a crib but I ended up keeping her often in the stroller's bassinet next to my best for frequent feedings.
My sister got a pack and play for hey 'crib' but never used it (it also had one of those 'bassinet'/changing pad features). Baby ended up in bed with her.
Do you know if they plan to breastfeed or not?
I did not co-sleep with my boys until they were about 4-5 months, when I just laid on my back on a carpet on the floor and they each hung off a boob... It was the only time I ever got a nap.
I really loved the idea of one of these bedside cribs (co-sleepers) which I felt was much safer for parents that rolled or someone unwilling to get rid of their blankets for a baby.
I was a little to... Frugal, to buy any of these. We got a crib from ikea that turned into a toddler bed, We kept the height at the crib level but did not insert the (removable) 4th wall, and zip tied it to our bed so it couldn't be moved. I sewed an attachment to both our mattresses so there was no gap to get stuck in or hurt.
Editing to answer the question of safety; Yes I think they are considered very safe but are not meant for 'long term' sleeping. I think if you throw in a firm mattress it changes things.
Many many people have been using pack and plays as permanent beds these days.
