Sami, my sister decided her LO wasn't ready to give up his highchair so i bought one from the car boot. The woman told me it was a Polly but it's flippin not.

It's this one, which google says is a Happy Snack. Now i'm miffed.... I take it the Polly is better/more expensive??

beanie - My mum was given this highchair from a friend who has older grandchildren. LO uses it when we visit and we really like it.

Well done Violet and Benjamin!

R.mac Annabel looks so sweet in those pics. Bless her cleaning up too :A

We had a lovely afternoon at Tropical World with Millie's Mum, Millie and El. The lovely MM also bought Alfie a toy lemur to remind him of his day :A

DH is out at football so I'm currently deciding what to do for dinner. Can't ever be bothered just cooking for myself. I did have some tinned peaches earlier when Alfie had his tea but I need much more than that!! I was suitably impressed with Alfie managing to pick up and eat the peaches actually as they're really slippery. He also managed at least half of the cheese muffin I gave him! Definitely takes after me and his dad in the eating department.

Thanks - i think i'm gonna try and ebay it tho cos it doesn't seem as comfy as our current one (we've had it 7 years lol) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hauck-Disney-Down-Highchair-Pooh-Cloud/dp/B000ZGRFRU

The tray sits too far away and high up, and you can't lower the seat (we don't have a dining table atm so sit on sofa or whatever). Also i can't tighten the straps enough and think she'll easily escape... Haven't done my research really, wondering if the Polly goes up and down?!

I'm not sure what make it is - I just go on the pictures :rotfl:

At home we have a tripp trapp that we love, but no good if you don't have a dining table. Our friends generally love the ikea antilop. I think MFD and 3 and krystal have them.......................

hehe, my baby is sat here in the highchair, wearing a Wall-E costume and eating potato and apple puree, keeps making me chuckle

I had him sat watching her while i served up (cos the straps are too loose haha) and thats what i came back to

Yes Caz, it was his first day. He loved it! Had an hours sleep from 1pm. Taxi is collecting him tomorrow...

I had my college induction yesterday and today. It turned out to be a full blown class! Spent all day in the lab doing stuff and I am knackered.

Boys have after school club all sorted out but the nursery have messed up Ambers registration and she may not have a place!!!! Plus SAAS havent yet processed my application even though everyone else in my class have had their award letters through. Lots of phone calls to make tomorrow.

How are you getting on? Feeling ok? How are the kids? And Les, is he hbehaving?

I don't have an antilop... I don't actually like them lol...

We use a mothercare booster chair strapped to a dining chair which is just fine for sitting on the sofa and feeding her... I think we might get the new baby one of these... Although we might need to get an extra chair if we ever end up eating at the table again...

Beenie, the Chicco Polly does go up and down, and reclines (not sure if the HS does)

BeenieCat

Thanks Elle, the HS reclines but i think that must just be for folding it up cos it's not at all sturdy in recline.

I'm such an idiot, i thought it was a Polly cos i'm not overly familiar with different highchairs, but knew the footrest was totally different to my sisters... And i STILL bought it??! And i paid £8 (she wanted 12!!) for it, which for a Polly would be bargainous of the highest order IMO.

It is immaculate mind, looks like it's never even been used. But i doubt i'd get my money back on it on ebay
