Riding Lessons

For Kyle's 1st Christmas, we bought him "Sammy the Snail" (photo at right is Kyle at 6 months!)

He has now decided that it is time for Hannah to start riding him too! Hannah has had incredible neck control since birth, and when lying on her back she strains her neck forward to sit up. So it shouldn't be a surprise that she is getting close to being able to sit up on her own. The Boppy pillow offers decent support for her and she really is propped up happily when in the bath tub, and Sammy does a very good job of helping her to sit as well.

Thankfully, Kyle has only focused on teaching Hannah how to squeeze Sammy's antennae to turn on his theme song "You are my Sunshine" and he hasn't been trying to teach her how to rock yet - which can get quite vigorous.
