Houdini

In early May Charlotte started standing up in her highchair. This was starting to worry me, but not enough to reattach the seat belts. Until...

One day after dinner everyone was done except Charlotte and Jason was upstairs. I needed to ask him something, so I ran upstairs. I ended up distracted (no surprise there), mid-sentence I remembered she was down there alone and not buckled. So I ran off leaving my sentence in the air behind me. I arrived breathless at the kitchen door and this is what I found...

She climbed on to her tray and then on to the counter top.

She is a stinker and she knows it. She wanted the cereal in the baggie.

We got Lucky!! The seat belt is back in!

The Easy to Clean Highchair

Yeah!! The new high chair finally arrived. For Jayce and Grahm I used a PegPerego Prima Pappa chair that we bought out of the classifieds (in Sun Valley from John Unser-race car driver). I wanted to love this fancy chair that we got a great deal on, but I had to make a new cover for it. The cover I made was denim, the bad thing was all the puffs and noodles and food would get smooshed into it and then I would have to wash it or it looked gross. Also there were grooves and nooks and crannies for food everywhere. Well needless to say, I begged for a new high chair that would be easy to clean and I found it. It is a Boon high chair with no nooks and crannies and Charlotte looks happy to have a chair. I am grateful that Jason was so sweet and understanding. Its funny how little things can make your day.
