basket baby

i bought this basket at ikea to use for cole's toys. i have convinced brad to find time in between his work and school schedule to build a shelf unit for the front room, which is going to be turned into a play room, eventually. in the mean time, the basket is keeping the toys cleaned up in the living room. cole loves the way the basket feels on his fingers and lunges for it when he sees it. so it only made sense to plop him in the basket. he played in it for a good 15 minutes!
