Now for my 2 cents worth on the Bumbo recall. Quite frankly I think it's CRAZY that Bumbo has done a recall on their baby seats just to add a warning sticker. Then again, I cannot comprehend how 28 parents or sets of parents could be dumb enough to put their child's Bumbo seat on a table or other high surface. Maybe I'm just overprotective but I don't put the baby on the kitchen table for any reason... not even strapped into his carseat! And it's not like I'm a nervous first time mom or anything... this is my third child so I do tend to be a little more slack about stuff. (No offense intended to first time moms of course, just commenting that with my first I was a bit more Type A.)

Seriously thought... the baby got one of his big sister's barrettes in his mouth yesterday and started to choke on it (he's okay, came right out as soon as Daddy flipped him over)... but does that mean I should sue the manufacturer that made those barrettes because it was a choking hazard? NO. That was completely mine and DH's fault... we should have been a little more cautious to check the floor before putting the baby down to play. That was just a lack of common sense... luckily it doesn't happen very often.

Well, the baby is fussing. Just had to post my thoughts on all this nonsense.
