Old toys are new again

I love toys that grow with Megan, especially toys that take up a lot of room. I bought this play station because it changes into about 5 different things as Megan grows. Last weekend we were able to change it from a toy Megan would lay under and play with to at table Megan could sit at and play with. This table is kind of neat because if she hits the buttons the light up and either play a song or just one note. Since the songs are really annoying (only 5 songs that repeat over and over) I almost always have it on just the single note. Plus it is really loud even after we put a piece of tape over the speaker! But Megan really likes her table now that she can sit at it, she didn't like it too much before.
And of course the day after we changed it so Megan could sit and play she decided that it is better to stand and play. So now she crawls to where ever this table is so she can stand and play with it. Only bad thing is that she can push it, so I have to make sure it is up against a wall or something that won't move. Right now we normally have it wedged between the couch and a padded footstool sitting on carpet because new standing skills equals lots of random falls. This position means she can only fall one way and when she does it is on carpet. No big tumbles yet so I think she is doing pretty good.

She is learning fast. It wont be long and she will be off and running.

I have also enjoyed that toys that grow with my children. They seem to last that longest and never get "old".
