How cute is this picture, right? I guess my friend Jennie’s postpartum yoga studio has a bunch of Bumbo seats, and Lukas, Mattias and Bianca couldn’t be more gorgeous models.
If you can scout out a place with multiple Bumbo seats, or have a Bring Your Own Bumbo playdate, don’t miss the opportunity to take a great picture.
Place the seats in front of a neutral background — or throw a white sheet over your couch — to create a more photogenic scene. Don’t worry if the babies are not looking at the camera. Their natural curiosity is part of the charm of this set-up.

This is cute but Bumbo got a lot of flack about a year ago for not explicitly stating that the seats should be used on the FLOOR ONLY. Putting them on a table or bookshelf or whatever leaves the possibility open that the kids could tip over and fall. Just an FYI.
Love it. So cute. I better go make another floppy baby to spill out of a Bumbo that way. not.
Great way to keep the little ones from squirming off the yoga mat!

We used a Bumbo (on a table! gasp!) for our Christmas card photo of our 5-month-old. We covered the not-very-holiday blue plastic seat with a white muslin blanket. They’re still some of my favorite pictures of him! http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4049/4241126416_5b7b850743.jpg
