Such a sad day, we got rid of Lila’s baby swing today. I admit it, I cried. And pretty hard at that. Ok, fine, so I’m crying as I type. I had no idea how hard it would be, but it was the first thing we got rid of that was hers.
She spent sooo many days and nights in that swing. It was the only thing that would put her to sleep many nights. I got it from a friend at her yard sale, so it wasn’t even new and pretty. But it worked, very well. It had a side to side motion that she liked more than the front to back. So many nights Bear and I fell asleep to the clickity-clack of that old swing.
Here she is at 6 months. She fell asleep not on “in” her swing, but “on” her swing. There was a very large puddle of drool on the toy tray!
And here she is when she woke up, the poor thing had indentations all over her face!
We’ll miss that old swing, but we have some wonderful memories that we’ll never forget. And I am trying to look at it as making room for more memories to come!
