A few people commented on the spy cam we used when Leo was here - what great reception it had. Well, it gets even better, people. What we got was the super-duper, slightly creepy it’s so effective, see-in-the-dark, cordless, doesn’t-even-really-look-like-a… baby-cam!
You can completely see a black/white picture in the pitch black dark - it’s amazing. Then in the day the monitor works in colour. You can hear the baby moving or talking… and it even hooks into your TV so you can watch a movie and just flick back over t the baby channel every once and a while.
I bought mine on Ebay from this vendor and totally love it. It freaks Jrock out but he did admit it was awefully handy when Leo was sleeping upstairs and we were playing games downstairs.
SUPER fun toy. Er, essential baby tool! lol

Hey,
I have been told by more than one mom that a video monitor is so so so handy.
My only “problem” is trying to find one where you can watch both kids on the monitor. Can you place it somehow so that you be able to see both the crib and the bed or would you need two seperate monitors?
Thanks,
Ricki

Ricki - this particular one has 4 different channels - so you can set 4 different “daisies” up and then just switch between channels! So yes, you can see in 4 places at once.
Of course, you have to pay for additional camera - I got 2, not knowing how we might need/use them.
Cheers

Yep- I’m a reader, just not much of a ‘commenter’…thanks for sharing about this monitor. I have to say it looks and sounds great! There seem to be an endless number to choose from and it is nice to know that at least one of them lives up to their claims.
Blessings,

That looks so cool! I am definitely getting one. Wish I had one for my first two. I have a little boy named Leo so it was cute to read about the Leo you know. I haven’t heard the name often.

I’ve started a spy cam flood!
Janice - my little “Leo” is actually short for Leandro - his mom is Brazilian. But that’s my nickname for him.

What a great invention! I am going to look into this more and see if we can get one!
