What do you do when...

What do you do when your 7 month old is pulling herself up.  I was just getting used to the crawling and the house was pretty much baby proof.  Now she is starting to pull up.  I find myself saying "sit down" a lot.  I won't post any bath photos,but she has learned to pull up in her little pink bath tub.  We had just gotten to the point where she would sit and play in the water and have the best time and I would just sit and watch her.  Now I can't let go of her for a second or she's standing up.  Ok, what's the big deal?  Well, we all know that a 7 month old standing up is immediately followed by a crash and a head bump.   I think I might just bathe her in the kitchen sink.   It's more contained and I won't break my back hanging onto her.

I put her in a laundry basket today.  I know our parents did it and I thought it would be something new and fun for a little bit while I folded clothes.  Yep, she can pull up in there too and it will tip over.  Like a good mom I put the camera down and didn't get any crying pictures...

  1. So funny!! I know it happened too fast, but very entertaining to watch your child (you) going through the exact things I went through. I know you loved the clothes basket and thought it was fun. Maybe you were a little older and were not trying to learn something new. Or maybe it the magazine I gave you to tear up while you sat there!! LOL
    Thanks for making me smile!!
