Party of four.

UPDATED!!  For Kristi. :D  

About a month ago, I finally found the kind of booster seat I had been looking for.  I needed one that only came up 7 inches from the chair for clearance under our table.  Turns out, that’s a bit hard to find.  But I did.

And why?  You ask.  Because for four years we have had a chair at the east end of our kitchen table that served as a high chair, but actually strapped onto a regular chair so it was much more convenient.  At first both Tara and Tim sat there and used the tray that comes with the chair.  Then they each graduated to eating from the table with a plate instead of the tray, but it was time to pass that on. 

Tim’s big enough to not be in any kind of booster really, but I wanted something so he didn’t eat all his meals on his knees.  He was ready to not have the confines of a high-chair-type seat.  To be one of the big kids.

I’m good with that.

Clockwise from the bottom left: Tara, Beth, Tim, Harold.  And you can't even see the booster.  Perfect.

 It even comes in black...instead of an obnoxious baby color.

And fits perfectly.

    How you tease. When do we get to see the new booster?

    Yay Tim…you’re a big kid now!! And that’s the best place to be…advance no farther!

    And I always put the napkins on the right side of the plate w/the fork…but that’s not proper etiquette is it? I guess I do because I cut my food with my left hand, even though I’m right-handed. A little ambidexterity goin on with me…

    I just ordered a new chair for Anna so Zeke can use the same high chair that you have. I found a knock off Tripp Trapp and can’t wait for it to arrive! :)

    *sigh* The end of an era.

    Did you know the ancient Mesopotamians ate their meals on their knees? They believed it helped with digestion, and pleased Megooganeth, the god of home and hearth. It’s where we get the modern-day expression: “I’m so full my kness are killing me.”

    Thank you! And do I see little gripper pads so the little bottoms don’t slide off the seat? Cool.

    You’re a good mom!
