Today was a big day of deliveries here – some for business and some for pleasure. One of them included Mackenzie’s new high chair which I’ll be talking about more very soon. What I found really interesting about the various packages is how efficiently some of them were packed, while one in particular was absurdedly oversized.

The high chair came from a place called Tchibo which has new items every week from a particular theme. Sometimes it will be baby stuff, another time Italian cooking and then they’ll throw in something like women’s clothing. Unable to fight off the impulse buys, I purchased a couple of other things along with the high chair and wondered what the box would be like when it arrived. I was not expecting this:

massive shipping box with newfie

The box is seriously big enough for a Newfie nest. It actually even makes Ayla look small. That is exactly how everything was arranged when I opened the box too – nearly a foot of headspace. How in the world did all that stuff stay put in there? Or was that meant to be part of the fun? Normally we get boxes that have been cut down to size or adjusted in some way so this just really surprised me. I knew it would be a big box but wow…

So unless the Newf decides she MUST HAVE the box (which considering how warm it’s been lately she’ll probably give up rights to it), we just might have to save this thing for Mackenzie’s first fort. 😉
