High Chairs Rock!


I have been on the prowl for a high chair for so long. I haven't found one I wanted to purchase until...yesterday! Yippeeeee! I love it. It's cute and just the right size. She has room to grow into it! I was worried that she'd already be too big for it. Good-ol' classic wood. Gotta love it. Someone enjoyed it before we did, so it was a great price! I fixed a couple minor things and there you go! Good as almost-new! :) Kate ate her first meal in it this morning. She had some pears and wheat (one of her favorites), and some smooshed bananas. SO GREAT! It's been like herding a cat, these past few months.
1)Trying to get her to eat while sitting in her "world" (they stand in- andthe seat spins around)
2) Trying to feed her while sitting on my lap.
3)Trying to get her not to fall out of the bumbo (I kept it on the floor, but she still managed to squirm her way out of that).
4) Last, but NOT least, feeding her while she's taking a bath! That's a classic one! Right when she's about to put her bath toy in her mouth, I sneak the spoon in. It's always funny to see how she reacts to that one.

So, kudos to whoever invented high chairs, and hooray for not feeling guilty anymore about Kate's eating habits! :) (By the way, she has consistently been great about drinking her formula at least)

Wow Abbs. I can't believe you went that long without a high chair. Amazing! You'll love the freedom, and little Kate will love knowing that when she is there, it's time to eat. She is so adorable. I know you are enjoying her so much. :)
