The Bumbo

When I went to purchase this wonderful item that I had been told was a "must" for any new mom soon after Landon was born, I could not find it anywhere. It had been pulled from the shelves due to a recall. Apparently someone had placed their child in the bumbo and then on a tabletop where they fell off and were injured. The remedy? A sticker was placed on the Bumbos that stated, “WARNING – Prevent Falls; Never use on any elevated surface.” They were then placed back on the shelves.

Although children being injured is certainly no laughing matter, I still find the recall and the "solution" a bit humorous. I wonder if the following pictures would give the Consumer Product Safety Commision a reason to produce new stickers...

I love the Bumbo. It's there to hold up my children when I can't!
