Bumbo Boy!

I put Micah in his Bumbo chair for the first time this week. He is getting much better at holding his head up and really stretching out so I thought I would give it a try. He wasn't too sure about it at first but then decided he kinda likes sitting up like a big boy. Yes, the bumbo is purple... Not so manly but, I got a great deal on it at a garage sale so this thrifty mom isn't ashamed of it!





Also, Micah is growing like a weed! I weighed him on our baby scale yesterday and he was 9lbs 5 oz. We haven't attempted to measure him but I bet he has also gotten taller since he still doesn't have many little baby rolls. He was 8 lbs 12 oz at our doctor appointment last week so he has gained over half a pound in a week. I thought he was going through a growth spurt!

He looks so cute in the chair!

I'd never seen these before this year- but now it seems like every Mom everywhere has them. What's the advantage to them? Less tummy time and no flat head? Or does it help them develop some muscle to help them sit earlier?

Awww...what an adorable bumbino you have! He's doing so good sitting up! Ian loved to sit in the bumbo outside and watch the world go by.

There's nothing wrong with purple for a guy! Moms do what Moms have to do to take care of their little ones, and if that means using an "off" color, so be it! =) Thanks to Laura for letting us borrow her blue one for McKamy - we'll be using it soon!

By the way, heard that Jennifer and Ethan had their little one, Elijah Joseph, on Wednesday the 7th.
