HABA toys recall

Anyone out there with some of these HABA toys? There is a recall - apparently there have been some reports of small pieces coming off! We have the teddy pacifier chain... The recall list states that a small mirrored piece is the culprit on our item, but there never has been a mirror on the one we have. Maybe it fell off before we bought it?! Yay, I guess? A mirror would have been fun, but if it's going to fall off then we're certainly better off without it. Check your items though to be safe!

I hope this doesn't cause people to abandon the generally safe wooden European toys... Life has it's risks and while I want to know about safety issues and recalls (hence the passing along of info) I don't want to become obsessed. Good logical common sense I hope will see us through the minefield of dangerous items.

On that note, did you realize that if crawling on the floor is just too darned dangerous for your little one, you can buy baby knee pads? Which are undoubtedly cute, but are they necessary? I fuss over Cole like a mother hen, but I think this is just a wee bit much. I'm focusing what little energy I have on keeping the floor clean! :-)
