heads up

when owen was a wee babe, he developed a flat side on the back of his head.  so we outfitted him in one of these expensive numbers: 

hank not only looks like his older brother, he also has the same flat head tendency.  it's not nearly as bad, so i am hoping i can keep him off his head long enough to miss the permanent head-flattening window.  is there a window?  enter the bumbo.  it's a love/hate thing for both of these boys.  they sit.  they smile.  they play footsies.  they shift to one side and almost fall out.  they slouch over and fall asleep.  they cry to be held by a real person.  but there will certainly be no flattening on the bumbo watch.my older kids are the ones who can't keep themselves out of the bumbo.  do they make this for 8 year olds?  seriously.
