High Chair Time

Lucas got a high chair for Christmas from Nonni and Bompa. It is ridiculous how many high chair options are out there...wood vs. plastic, convertable vs. classic, attaches to a chair vs. stand alone, with a tray vs. without a tray vs. a dishwashable tray, etc. each with their own set of benefits. In the end, I decided to go with a traditional wooden high chair with a plastic (removable, dishwasher safe) tray...I guess there are some things I am a sucker for the iconic style.

One benefit of having a high chair is that it is forcing us to start having family sit down meals at the table instead of standing at the counter or sitting in front of the TV. I mistakenly thought this would happen after we had a baby but it turns out that baby needed a chair first! This is a step in the right direction :) I won't review the high chair until I have more experience using it and see how it endures the test of time. After all, Lucas just sits in it right now and watches us eat or sportscenter with his daddy. Seriously...this morning for brunch he was looking at the TV and smiling at the bright football colors. In other news, I recently learned how to properly fold a fitted sheet from a dear lady at a bridal shower. She used to work at Bergdorf Goodman (I think) back in the day and is an expert sheet folder. Check out this fitted sheet fold job...

Can you believe this is a fitted sheet?!?!?!

Check out Archie's groom job. We have his hair groomed at a salon that is inside a larger pet store by Dario. When we went to pick him up last night he wasn't quite ready so we got to watch. Pretty much every patron in the store walked by, stopped, and stared at Archie getting his hair cut. It was hilarious! I guess you don't see many ginormous apricot poodles.
