This week, Yahweh blessed us with a beautiful highchair! I'm still in shock over how nice it is, and how nice it feels to eat dinner without holding a one-year-old on my lap! :)

We had been using a portable high chair that strapped to a regular chair, but the tray constantly fell off. Rather than pick food up off the floor, I had been holding Eliyahu at mealtimes. We didn't want to sacrifice the money ($60+) or space (have you seen how HUGE high chairs are these days?!) for a new one. I really wanted one of the ones like my parents have: small, metal, and durable.

As it happens, I was listening to Tradio (trying to sell something -- this was the first time I had listened in years!) and heard someone advertize a metal highchair for $5.

Turns out, her husband had completely refinished it and it looks basically like new, even though it's one of those ancient metal chairs with a stainless steel tray! And they only wanted $5! What a bargain.

It's even green, like my kitchen curtains! :)

Eliyahu loves it. I think he's eating more at mealtimes, now that he gets to sit in it! And our old highchair is going "bye bye". Yay! :)
