Bumbo and Bare

Ben's been getting restless, so today we tried the Bumbo chair. We didn't have one with Mae, so this was new for all of us. But so far, he seems to really like it being able to sit up in the middle of things. He can only sit there for a short while before becoming overwhelmed, but we'll gradually build up to longer periods.
Mae was also a fan of the Bumbo, playing around Ben so he could see what she was doing. But then she noticed Ben's head and let Kirsten know she was concerned about "bebe's head." Not quite getting her message, Mae felt compelled to show Kirsten what was wrong by trying to cover Ben's head with leftover yarn, saying "hair." Poor guy.
Of course, Mae felt the need to test out the chair for herself once it was vacated.

Sounds like our house! Alex didn't have a Bumbo either, but Zachary loves it. I guess older siblings are too exciting to watch from the floor.
