The Bumbo Chair, One size fits all?

This past sunday Uncle Kana bought Na'ulei a new chair. It's called a Bumbo, and is supposedly praised among baby critics. There are many great reviews about the product. Some of the positive features this chair offers are:

-portability

-stability

-lightweight
-great baby support (baby won't fall out, and gives baby good posture)

-no straps needed

-made of comfortable nontoxic foam

The Bumbo came to us at a perfect time, because Na'ulei has been eating baby food for the past month. We've been struggling with holding her down and feeding her at the same time. So we looked forward to the Bumbo. However, when we opened the box, we were a little worried about its size. By now, everyone is aware of Na'ulei's larger than normal thighs. We weren't sure if her legs would fit in the leg slots.



We attempted to put her in, and to our surprise...Na'ulei fit!!! The chair is perfect, or at least we THOUGHT it was perfect. Watch and you'll see.

Too bad they don't make Bumbo in Polynesian sizes.

It's Official!...Birthday Boy!

Since our last post, this Tuitele family has been through alot. Let's start with Cameron. Cameron graduated from the police academy last thursday, May 29. I got to pin his badge on.

After all the recruits got pinned, they all shouted "159 Mana'opa'a" (which was their class number and name). Just then, Na'u started to cry...really loud. She got startled while grandpa Timmy was holding her and everyone in the audience started to laugh. When Cameron went back to work the following day, everyone was talking about it and knew that it was Tui's baby crying.

Officer Tuitele is in the top row, fifth one in from the right, next to the bald haole guy.

Thank you to family and friends who came out to support Officer Tuitele.

Some of the little supporters...Teija and Kayla.

Some of the bigger supporters...Anthony, Aho, and Loa.

Congratulations Daddy! We love you!

Although Cameron graduated from the academy, he still has alot more training to go through before being out on his own. We'll keep you posted.

This past monday, June 2nd, we celebrated Cameron's 27th birthday. We didn't get to do much because of work and going to the big family home evening but we had fun. We got to sing happy birthday and eat yummy chantily cake.

Happy Birthday!
