My Birthday Present
My sister had such wonderful intentions for a birthday present for me:
1) a trip to the nail salon to have our toenails painted &
2) a trip to a local little boutique where I could pick out any dress I wanted
The ideas sounded lovely!
BUT...
1) the nail salon was closed when we got there
2) the boutique was fun but I tried on a lot of little dresses none of them were "me".
So instead, I picked out a high chair from the antique mall.
Monday morning I put him in it.
And was confident that I made the right decision.
He ate really well and I nearly ate him as he sat in it like a big boy!
Then I put him back in it for lunch. He was thrilled.
He did his best ostrich impersonation.
He cracked up.
Have I mentioned that I love kids?

Very cute highchair, too. You made the right decision, although I did ask for a breast pump for Christmas the year that I had my little girl. (Talk about making your brother-in-law uncomfortable.) :)
He is too cute.
I'm still waiting for a haircut tutorial - my Gracie really needs a trim.
A girl after my own heart. :) I would have probably done the same thing. You really have three of the cutest little ones on the planet. The little JM is such a doll!

Those were great pictures. I'd probably would have done the same thing as you did. Get something for someone in my family instead!! Happy Birthday.
Darby, JM is gorgeous!!!
I Love this post! You think it's a little obvious you're kind of fond of being a mama? :) I LOVE IT! I hear ya! These little children are pretty dag-um fun! (DOESN'T HURT A BIT either when they're THAT cute!!!!) Wow-wow-wee! You could make a killing off of that little boy's looks! REALLY! CUTE! LOVE YOU, D! Glad y'all had fun! That was way nice of Erika too! Sweet Sister!
Great pictures, especially with the lighting. I LOVE his animals onesie, though most anything would look cute on him.
goodness, he's cute!!
we call that last picture of John Martin the Gangster Lean- no one can poop sitting flat!!! Love the toofies coming in- I swear he is edible!
We need to go get a manicure and a massage!!! LOL!
ok you made me laugh out loud. love that!!!
He is such a cutie!
He's even adorable while pooping!
I love this post and your new chair is a wonderful find! I am sure you will have it a lot longer than a dress. Enjoy
Those photos are GORGEOUS!!! It's not easy traveling with the munchkins., but WHAT an awesome weekend!!!!
ha! i'm laughing so hard my coffee might come out my nose. too early to laugh so hard. love it.
Blair does her poopy while she is eating too! Makes for a beautiful face when your out at a restaurant!
John Martin is so cute!! what an adorable face!But He is not going to appreciate the pooping picture 10 years from now:-)
Cute high chair and precious baby boy!!
The ostrich picture made me laugh out loud right here alone in my office. Too funny!
LOL! This was great...made me smile. I LOVE kids as well! Can't wait to have more! : )
Thanks for making me laugh first thing this morning!
too funny. For mothers day my husband said I could get someone to clean the house, well she was a no show. Now I would like to use the money for a steam mop.
I KNOW you well enough to know that you truly 'invested' WELL in the high chair, RATHER THAN on your feet, hands or on clothes! :) And anyone who reads your blog KNOWS you LOVE kiddos!!! ;) I LOVE that about YOU! You are transparent with your love!
Have a great weekend, and Happy Daddy's Day to Justin!!! :) We're off to the beach today! Woohoo!!
I love it! You're right it is perfect, just look at that face!
What a precious boy! Great photos!
You made the right choice...love the high chair!
Most def the right choice....(I msut share that reading your blog is my reward for getting a certain amount of work done)I love your pics......ahhh inspiration...
EEEKKK! His little teeth...his sweat smile, and hey, we all gotta go sometime! : )
I love that shot of him making a "gift." You totally have bribery material for his teen years!
Ha! Lovin that last pic!
He looks like Brad Pitt.
You're cracking me up!
I would love to see a pic of the high chair! You have the most adorable, cute, sweet (he looks so sweet) little boy that anyone could ever ask for! Blessings- Carol
I LOVE a poopy face! My daughter is 6 months old and I keep trying to catch her in the act, but can't get to the camera in time...love it!
You made the right choice! The high chair will still be around when John Martin is a grown man, and the manicure and dress, though lovely would be long gone!
I love his hair style and he is so cute ..
This is really nice post works well and easy to configure...thanks for all info.
