Luca's new chair

When kid is in the high chair he has these super awesome annoying habits of kicking the foot rest hard, rocking front and back so violently that the whole chair inches forward, and pushing off our our leg while we were sitting so that he was far away from the table, among other wonderful things. So it was decided he needed a booster. I naturally did way more research than the average person, and settled on one that connected to the table instead of to a chair. Figured since we don't have a lot of space around the table, and it's kind of long and skinny, I didn't really want to be at the opposite end of the table as Josh. It would feel a little like that meal in Beauty and the Beast. So one that connects to the table could be put in the corner same as where we pulled the high chair up. Hopefully, it would work.

While we tried to take a cousins picture and my kid was the only one crying and refusing to smile, it was suggested that I leave and see if that helps. Gave me an opportunity to go buy the chair, and naturally I got a text after about 10 minutes saying they were done and he was busting a gut through most of the pictures and out of the dozen pictures taken only one or two didn't turn out. What did I learn from this? No more will I take him to get his pictures taken, since I apparently bring out the diva in him.

ANYWAY

I wanted to test the chair and make sure it was installed right and wouldn't fold up under his weight or anything. But kid was sleeping. So Jude volunteered.



Doesn't it look like he's happy to help? But it worked just like it was meant to. We got to test it at dinner and it worked like a charm! He swings his feet like you can't help but do while you're waiting for a roller coaster to start, but there's nothing to kick against! Win Win.


Of course the first meal we ate Jude wandered aimlessly under the table, very confused about where the food was going to drop from and where he needed to be to get to it first. Poor puppy.
