Get the Bloopy. I mean the Blumpo. I mean the Bappy.

Kyle and I are totally new to this whole parenting thing. We've learned a lot of new words throughout the pregnancy and the last 4 1/2 months*.

Words like fundus. And anterior position. And colostrum. And mucus plug. (Ack! Sorry, I'll stop.) 

But one thing that neither one of us can master is what to call that little rubbery seat that Cannen loves.

Perhaps you know what I'm talking about? It's a Bumbo and even Microsoft Word recognizes it as an actually word.

You think we'd know what to call it since, oh, I don't know, it's WRITTEN ON THE APPARATUS. But neither one of call it by the correct name. Ever.

We're special.

Kyle and I have called it pretty much every weird "b" word we can. Bloopy. Bilpy. Bloppy. Babbo.

I think Cannen is looking at us saying, "It's Bumbo, you idiots".

Poor kid has weird parents.

*For some reason I wrote this two months ago but didn't post. And in fact, Cannen doesn't really need it anymore. But I still wanted to tell you that we're brand new and we get a good laugh at ourselves now and then.
