Jillian's New Table and High Chair

Jillian drawing with her Magna Doodle.

I asked Jillian to smile for me.

Jillian has been rejecting her high chair as of late. When it is meal time we ask her to go get in her high chair. She would run over to her purple arm chair and repeatedly say "high chair." We tried to explain that her high chair was in fact the tall one with the frogs on it. No luck. High chair meant her purple chair.

So we changed our tactics and told her she needed to get into her "frog chair." Every time we told her to do this she would again say "high chair" and run to her purple chair. She loves that darn chair.

So my latest idea was to get her a table and chair that she could eat and play at. We took a sojourn to IKEA and I convinced Jason that the $8 end table works just as good as the $25 children's table (I'm a bit thrifty). We set it up and she has taken to it. She calls her new red chair "high chair." Oh well. As long as she eats her food at the table, she can call it whatever she wants.

We have had a few of those tables from Ikea. They are great and if they get colored all over you don't feel bad since they are such a great deal :)

She is growing up way too fast. We need a play date ASAP. She is absolutely perfect in every way!
