Jenny Jump Up: You're lucky this baby bounces!

For our baby shower we got one of these: Jenny Jump up. For those that don't know what it is, basically you connect it to a door frame, put the baby in it, and he/she can jump around. I tried out Cheyenne's the other day for the first time, she didn't really know what to think of it haha. She liked the fact that she can spin around in it, but the jumping was minimal at best...

So the other day, while I was at work, Jason decided to let her play in it for a little while. We have it set up near our steps, so Jason sat on the steps and watched her spin around for a little while. Cheyenne dropped her binky, so he leaned over to pick it up, and at that moment... BAM!!  One of the straps (the left one in the picture up there) came out, and poor Cheyenne fell right out of it!! It took literally a split second for this to happen. Needless to say, Cheyenne wasn't too happy about this. So daddy spent the next half hour trying to calm her down. Poor baby!

The straps on this thing are held on by nothing more than a 'lip' on the end of the fabric, so we knew to keep an eye on her when she was in it, but what the hell kind of manufacturer would make a toy that kids are suspended in the air in (okay they touch the ground with their feet but still) that they are only held on my a small lip on the end of the fabric?!?!

I'm sure if I wasn't taught right from wrong growing up that somehow I could probably sue this company, tell them my kid has like PTSD or something from the fall and that she's now afraid of heights or something and I could probably get millions! Damn, why do I have to have a conscience? My dream of being a stay at home mom seems so close! =o)

Anyway... needless to say, Jenny Jump Up is now Jenny Packed Up in my basement... R.I.P. Jenny Jump Up... you were good for about 10 minutes...
