[blparent] [Bulk] Re: Items you couldn't live without

[Tammy, Paul and Colyn]

Hi,

Also, try to find one that will work on both batteries or power.  This will 
save money since swings eat batteries like crazy.  My son didn't really like 
his swing in the beginning, but he's just recently found he loves to sit in 
it and watch everything.
