Since Leighton wasn't able to sit up on his own yet his swing, bouncy seat, and bumbo chair were the only options for our arms to get a break sometimes. He hates to lie on his back so putting him down just never worked Well he doesn't really like the bumbo seat all that much and goes #2 everytime we put him in it and it always smashes out somehow, wierd huh? and He can't be in his swing all the time, so this only left his bouncy seat. At the beginning of August we noticed Leighton decided he didn't want to sit in his bouncy seat anymore. He showed us this by climbing out. Here it is step by step: The scoot down.
The swing your feet up and down and let the spring in the seat help bounce you forward.
Use arms to push you once swing motion is no longer effective at the edge of the seat.
One foot on the floor almost there! Keep scooting!
Finally flop out on the floor, man I forgot I can't sit up, scream for a parent to rescue you before the smelly dog comes over to lick you!!!


That last picture was taken on a separate day than the others in the sequence catching the final outcome w/o letting him get hurt was a little hard. But it was very funny and had to be caught on film!!! Now the bouncy seat is put away since he would get out by the time i made it into the kitchen from the living room.
