We decided to buy an exersaucer now that Truman is four months old AND given that he seems to want to "stand" all the time (What happened to sitting up? Isn't that a worthy goal?). The "pants" that hold him in the seat allow him to be upright unassisted, and the 360-degree turning feature means that he can access all the toys on his own. (In theory.) He didn't seem to like it at first, but now it's one of his favorite hangouts. In fact, he's such a busy bee while in it that we've taken to calling it "the office." (I'm sure we're not the first parents to come up with this!)
Here he is conversing with an "associate" about recent sales figures....
And organizing his "tape dispenser," which he is obsessed with. And I do mean obsessed. (Notice how his hand rests protectively there in the first photo.)
Big smile! Must be because he's playing with that tape dispenser. Again.
We've kind of cheated and haven't yet installed the batteries in the sound machine (right background) that makes animal noises. For now, Truman just thinks it's a bunch of brightly colored things he can bang on. Hey, whatever works.

Way to go Truman! Phoebe was afraid of your 'associate' the dragon at first.
Tell your mom and dad to put the batteries asap! You'll love hearing the word cow in spanish.
When Phoebe played with the tape dispenser, we thought she was channeling Gracie at the slots in AC.
Guess it's never too early to put that MBA to use. Good thing his name is Truman and not Dwight (and I don't even *watch* "The Office"!). ;-)
Yes, those batteries need to be put in for full effect in the "office!" What a great smile in the one picture.
Those exersaucers sure have come a long way since the Reilly children were babies.
Love,

M had that very same excersaucer. Ahh, memories. Truman's smile is killer, btw!
Glad Truman got to use the hat, he looks like he enjoyed the water.
Whenever Pachau saw Sydney in the saucer, he always called it her, Cadillac! because it had so many great features on it to play with.
Hope everyone is doing well.
Love,
Aunt Ellen xoxoxoxoxxoxo
