too big to have fun?

i weighed quentin a couple of days ago and he clocked in at 26 pounds, which means he's "too heavy" to jump in the jumperoo and swing in the swing. he's also too big for the changing table on the pack n play, and only 4 pounds away from being too big for the entire pack n play. guess it's time to invest in one of those superyards and build him a baby corral like he has at day care! poor kid. i'm not sure we're ready to give up the jumperoo!

Woah, are you sure that's right? Will is only 23 lbs on the doctor's scale, and he's somewhere above average.

If they had maximum head size requirements, though, Will would be too big to have fun.

it wasn't exactly a scientific weighing - just the ol' step on the scale while holding him, then step on without him and subtract. i did it again today and he was 24 pounds. so he's somewhere in that neighborhood. we're not going to retire the jumperoo just yet!

Lil' Q should have an electro shock collar and an invisible fence. That way he can roam far and wide, but not too wide nor too far.

Note - this is why I am not allowed progeny.

While you're at it, I'd put Jer in one also.

hahaha. we did buy him a "crawling tarp" for the yard so he can't eat the grass.

When you say "we bought HIM a tarp" are you referring to Q or J or both? We know that J probably picked up eating and yacking grass from Jackie-boy.
