So Casey out grew her diaper stand around age 1. With her being so long and so stiff there was just no way to get her on the standard baby changing station. We have been making due with the floor, beds, etc. All of the beds in the house have the mattress pads on because changing her on the bed has led to many accidents.
We have been trying to come up with a better solution for a while. In our bedroom there is a big bay window. This was just wasted space. We knew that this was the best place to put something, just what?
I am very fortunate to have a talented husband. Tim spent a few weekends and evenings in the garage with his power tools. I think what he built came out so wonderful. We ordered a pillow tow, but he did all the base work.
A lot of window seats have flip lids to get in for storage. Being that we want to use this as a diaper stand for Casey we really wanted open accessible storage. Tim made some really deep cubbies that are perfect. We can store all of Casey’s diapers, wipes, blankets, drool cloths, wedges, etc. I am so happy; this makes storage and diapering so much easier.
In addition to using it for diapering we also can use it for getting her dry and dressed after her bath. You can barely see her hand and head sticking out of the towel, but here she is using her her new bench after her bath.
This picture has nothing to do with the bench, but she is just too cute not to post it 🙂
