She is growing up!

I know this is silly, but im a bit emotional as i changed Jessicas high chair into a table and chair this morning, i had to do it as it was hurting my hand trying to get her in and out!
She thought it was brilliant though and sat nicely eating her breakfast.

If i feel like this about a high chair, god knows what i will be like when she goes to school!

    Hi Simone,

    Any change is emotional, whether they are being moved from a cot to a bed or going up a stage in clothing, or as you say, no longer having the high chair.

    It is not silly, it's just reality hitting you, and as far as school goes you might surprise yourself, I was expecting to be an absolute wreck but didn't shed one tear!!

    Definitly time for another one, but we will have to wait until at least next year!

    She has just had her lunch, in her big girl chair and loved it, the problem was she had a paddy when i got her of the chair

    I felt a bit like that too when Katelin went into a forward facing carseat.

    At least you know you can have another baby!!!

    I bet Jessica loves it

    Awww Simone, it certainly does sound like you need another baby!!!

    Jessica is indeed growing up, as they all are! Every day Bronwyn amazes me with something new. Enjoy and savour every moment! I have just been given a lecture by Gareth about capturing EVERYTHING new for him on camera!!! I could be away from PP for a few years at that rate as i'll be busy with my camera!!!!!

    Simone you are right when they first go to school it is really hard. Glad Jessica is enjoying using her table and chair.

    Sarah that is a bit of a 'moment' when they sit up nicely when you are eating out rather than in the pram/buggy or snuggled up at your feet in the car seat. God im feeling broody now!!!
