Baby Toys

After ignoring the exersaucer for at least a half a year, the toy became a big source of interest to Abby once again...as soon as Ben was big enough to play in it, of course. And then, when we got the walker down from the attic several weeks ago, she also decided that she would "share" that with Ben as well. Thankfully, she's fairly petite for her age (only five pounds heavier than Ben), so I'm not worried about her breaking Ben's toys and instead just laugh at her enjoying her baby toys again.



One thing that she especially loves to do when Ben is in the walker is to climb on the back and get him to pull her around. At only 8-months-old, Ben can do it, but just barely. He pulls hard and inch by inch they move around kitchen. Sometimes he gets frustrated that her weight slows him down and I have to step in and save him, but other times they both enjoy it and Abby giggles in delight at her little brother giving her a ride.

Coleson & Tate said...

haha! What is funny is Coleson just climbed in Tate's excersaucer for the first time this week.=) He has also enjoyed himself a Puff or two. What is also funny is the boys are only 8 pounds apart, despite their 2 year 3 month age difference. I think Tate is going to weigh close to what Coleson weighed at 2 years at jis one year. Silly younger brothers!

That is hilarious!! I love how in the last picture, you can see Ben leeeeeaning into it, grabbing onto the edge and trying to puuuuush so hard with his feet. That is so funny that she thought of that and that he'll happily try to pull her along!

Luke suddenly revisited the exersaucer again when we brought it out for Maria, too. Except he'll get in, get stuck, and keep calling for me saying, "Tuuuuuck! Tuuuuuck!" (Stuck) until I get him back out.
