A high seat


Sydney Frances and Rush would like to introduce you to their new "high seats". We put the high chairs in the attic this past weekend and I bought these little booster seats so the kids could officially join us at the table. Sitting down at the table for dinner... even if it is just tacos is important to me, so I am glad to have them really sitting with us. I also got some vinyl placemats to try to protect my wood table that I bought years before I was considering little sticky, greasy fingers rubbing all over it. The protection of the wood is not going well, so I am planning to invest in a cheap vinyl tablecloth to protect the table. I will make sure it matches the yellow bath towels currently protecting the cloth seats, though. I know you all can't wait to come eat dinner at my fancy table!! Ha! :-) Frannie calls the new boosters their "high seats". She always wants to be put in her high seat so she can eat wunch {aka "lunch"}. Apparently, it is the best meal of the day because that is what she calls all three of them. As usual, I am slightly sad to see them move on to one more "big kid" thing, but I know I have to let them grow up at some point. Five year olds look funny in high chairs. The kitchen does look a little empty, though, doesn't it?

They do look like big kids now. There will be more room for toys without the high chairs! LOL!
