our trick

Some of our friends told us that they do this with their little girl when they are working in the kitchen. Emerson doesn't want to be left alone anywhere and if he can be at your level he is even happier. So this was the perfect place for him. He was much happier here. He can crawl out of it though so we have to be careful.
Emerson stole a carrot from dad's pile. I am sure that uncoocked carrots are on the list you're not supposed to give your baby... we aren't good examples.
