Preparing for a New Baby 


Wanda: Oh hi, I wasn’t expecting you today. 


Enrique: We’ve been cleaning out our garage and your sister said I should come by with a few things for your baby. 


Wanda: That’s really sweet of you guys, but I’m not due for another six months. 


Enrique: But you’ll need these things to get the baby’s room ready, right? 


Wanda: Well, we don’t actually have a baby room set up yet. 


Enrique: There’s no time like the present. Here’s a crib and the mattress 1. It just needs to be assembled. Oh, here are some bumper 2 pads that go with it. 


Wanda: Great. 


Enrique: Here’s a changing table. 


Wanda: Wow, that’s really big. 


Enrique: Here are two car seats, one for infants and one for toddlers, and here’s a booster seat. 


Wanda: That’s a lot of stuff. Are you sure you want to part with all this? 


Enrique: Positive. Here’s a basic baby monitor and a video monitor so you can keep tabs on the little one. 


Wanda: Whoa, what’s in all these bags? 


Enrique: They’re baby and kids clothes. You’ll need more than you think. 


Wanda: That’s really generous of both of you, but are you sure you want to give it all to me? 


Enrique: Of course, you’re family and this will help you save a lot of money. 


Wanda: And it’ll free up garage space for your new workshop? 


Enrique: Well, why not kill two birds with one stone?
