Swing

Our new house has a covered patio. I've never thought about having a covered patio (just a roof over it, not screened in) before, but now it's definitely on my forever house wish list.  Anyway, back in March we bought a $30 kiddie swing to hang from the ceiling of the patio.

Pippa loves it. Roxy just loves to push it (ending 50% of the time with the swing bonking her in the head). Pippa doesn't always like Roxy pushing her because the pushes aren't big enough.

So I got out the baby jumper and Roxy pushes that. Roxy likes it because it's more her height and I like it because less whining plus it never hits her in the head. They both like pushing dolls / animals in the swings.

Two days ago Roxy asked to go in the swing. Amazing. Before this she would scream and kick if you even tried to put her in the swing (she doesn't like the swings at the park either - I have wondered for a long time (since she was an infant and hated car rides (and still does))if maybe she has a motion sickness thing, but that's a thing for another time). So this was her first time in the swing.

She absolutely did not want to be pushed at all by me or Pippa. But she was fine (and occasionally smiley) just sitting there.
