Highchair revamp

Our little Beau is growing up fast! he was two this past Feb and what a little man he is becomming.

Yes, two, so you can imagine....he is starting to explore his growing independance and loves to try everything for himself. For example eating his dinner using his cutlery and drinking from a "big" cup, not a sippy cup all the time.

He's getting so tall and he is fast out-growing his highchair, but still not quite big enough to sit in a normal sized chair at the table. So instead of going out and buying an "in-between" toddler chair I decided to just adapt the one he has.
 He looooves it, especially because he can climb in and out by himself now too and now he sits at the table properly with us. I love seeing my beautiful family together at the table. We have so much quality time there, talking and listening to each other, laughing, etc. One of my favourite times of the day....

(Anyhoo, one of our neighbours kindly gave us this lovely chair as their grandchildren had outgrown it). I love the old retro look it has, just needed a little extra TLC to give it a little lift. And what better colour than a beautiful, fresh, happy, sunshiny, (unisex) yellow! (Dandelion Yellow by British Paints)

Heres the pics....really happy with how it turned out and I think Beau is too.
