Big girls chair

Besides Santa Claus we also have Sinterklaas in Holland. He comes on December 5th and brings the children presents together with his horse and helpers (zwarte pieten). You can read more about him and the tradition if you like on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas

Since we won't be in Holland this year for Christmas we celebrate Sinterklaas with my parents this coming weekend. But the one gift we had to go get ourselves for her was the high chair. It is a nice small one made from wood and when Jill gets a little older she can also use it without the tray and just sit at the table with us.

Of course we had to test it out for a photo shoot, but Jill is just a bit to small still and can't hold her head up for too long yet to use the chair. O well in a week from now it will be on a boat on the way to VT so by the time it gets there she will be able to use it for sure.

This picture is a little out of focus but still really cute.





















Look at me! I am a big girl now!
