buh bye highchair

H & H eat together at the table for the first time.

Yes that is a fork in Harrison's milk, I'm telling each meal looks like "kids gone wild" in the school cafeteria.
....
It is so wonderful to report that both H & H are at the table now. It may not seem like a big deal to some, but to the Mom's out there that clean up 3-5 times a day after meals and snacks can be dreaded. Especially since I apparently have messy eaters...not the toddlers that freak if they are dirty. Harrison's booster was pain, the crevices and straps were always a mess after each meal, the table, and the floor. Then there was Hailey's highchair straps, her double tray, the crevices inbetween each slat of her wooden highchair and the floor...(not a reccomended chair - looks A+, ease of clean up F). Harrison is now in a one piece booster, no straps (didn't use them anymore), no straps to secure to the chair just air pockets and no crevices...one swipe wipe down. Cooshee seats seems pricey but are worth every penny Mom's (and Dad's) and we lucked out an found a Cooshee booster at Marshalls! Score!! Hailey has a Summer Infant chair that has feet for now to bring her closer to the table and as she grows these will fold up. She has straps, 1 piece chair for easy wipe down, and the straps be safely removed as she gets older and doesn't need them. Two excellent products in my book. Since they are both at the table and sit next to each other I only have to clean 1 table top and 1 area of the floor now. Much quicker and more efficient since we have to get out of the house faster in the morning for school!
