A Tearful Goodbye

March 24th, 2007

It’s the end of an era. Today we had to banish the bouncy chair from the house.

I had Bridget in it while I was doing some work this afternoon, and I glanced over at her to see her leaning forward and over so much that she almost had her hands touching the floor. I know she isn’t strong enough or heavy enough to actually flip the thing over or put enough pressure on the straps to fall out, but still. I don’t trust it enough to feel comfortable leaving her in it.

Thank god for the Bumbo and the new entertainer toy (not an actual exersaucer, a different brand but same idea). Hopefully with both of those on hand, I’ll still be able to shower every day.

    I can’t believe she’s already outgrown the bouncy chair! Wow, time truly does fly when you have kids, doesn’t it? My kids were never partial to the bouncy chair, unfortunately, but they do love their swing, and I love the fact that it gives me a little “me” time in an otherwise chaotic day! It will be a sad, sad day in my household when they reach the weight limit and can no longer use that thing.
