Re: PIP Thursday!

  • KH826, Will is getting so big! he's adorable! BTW what is a go pod? haven't heard of that one..

    Thanks! Your little ones are getting so big too! Love the winter coat! :)

    The go pod is basically like a portable jumpy seat. It is made out the same material as a soccer mom chair (I know that isn't the official term, but I don't know what else to call it), and it folds up and has a little carrying case with a shoulder strap. As he gets older, he will be able to stand in it, but for now he sits and his feet just barely touch the ground. It has little loops and Velcro spots to snap toys onto the top, and there are also cup holders (for a sippy cup in the future, or for mom's water bottle!). We thought it would be great to take to the park, and also to take to my mom's house when we go up there for Thanksgiving. Light weight, portable, sturdy and it will contain our squirmy monkey as he gets more and more squirmy and mobile!

    @redrockmama‌ I don't think M could be any cuter! He's so handsome.

    @jazibel you boys are adorable! I haven't kept up with the parenting check in because Mondays have been super busy but I hope the move went well!!

    "Things separate from their stories have no meaning. They are only shapes. Of a certain size and color. A certain weight. When their meaning has become lost to us they no longer have even a name. The story on the other hand can never be lost from its place in the world for it is that place.” ― Cormac McCarthy, The Crossing
