These Wee Hours: Bumbo Seat

Bumbo Seat

Here we go! The Bumbo baby seat. They each sat in it for a few brief minutes before their necks tired and they wanted to do something else, but it's a start. My bobble-headed babies are getting control of their necks!

I have several friends and family members whose kids have enjoyed their Bumbos. I read up on them and it seems that the biggest complaint/worry, other than having them tip over with active babies in them, is that the leg openings are too small for chubby-legged babies. I'm borrowing a friend's Bumbo. I don't think I would pay for one myself. Perhaps it's because I haven't had time to enjoy or respect it's full value. Only time will tell! What's your experience with the Bumbo?

...and they're really fun in the water! Not too much water or the seats will float, but it's a nice way to let them slash around in a baby pool!

We LOVE our bumbo, if you're worried about leggies fitting Miss A had some leg rolls and was just fine and at age 4 she still sits in it. Both girls love it and I even bought the tray (although I hear they made some improvements to the tray I have) I know you and the girls will enjoy it!
