Things We Bought Before Having Kids

August 22, 2013 by Stuart

As I pack the house to move across town, I started a mental list of things we bought before having kids:

  • dry-clean only dining chair seat cushions
  • crystal bar ware
  • white linens
  • glass-top tables
  • wine that costs more than $9.99 a bottle
  • delicate undergarments with multiple ties, clasps, etc. (my wife only, you smartypants!)
  • the Sunday paper
  • a cigar humidor

That’s all I found (for now).  What about you – do you have anything that you used to have front and center in your house and now is locked away or on a shelf for fear of it being destroyed by kids (or vice versa).
