    I thinkt hey make highchairs ridiculously big - when Alice stopped using hers, we still had the straps on the tightest setting and they were loose. This is two months before we stopped using it and you can see the straps are falling off her shoulders:

    I'm a bit bored today. V is having a nap, everywhere is tidy and I don't even have any ironing to do.

    I'm clearly doing something wrong: I never run out of stuff to do although I do procrastinate a lot.

    We never bothered with a high chair. I fed Charlotte in her bouncy chair at first as she was weaned before she could sit unsupported.

    Once she could sit up herself, I just used a booster seat that fastened into a dining chair and she sat at the table with us. She used that until she was about 2, and then has just used a normal dining chair since then.

    This is her on her first pancake day at 10 months. Note the infamous stripey babygro :D

    She didn't want to go to school this afternoon and said she wanted to stay at home and look after me. I said she had to go and I'd be fine on my own. She said "well make sure you put your cardy on and stay warm" :rotfl:

    I never run out of things to do either. I was going to take it easy this morning, but I ended up putting the Tesco shopping away when it was delivered, did some ironing, sorted some paperwork out, cleaned the bathroom and played with Charlotte.
    Here I go again on my own....
