Snack Time




Grandma and Papa bought this table and chair set for Jasper for Christmas. Actually ... we picked it out while they were here for their annual winter pilgrimage to Texas. We found the chairs at the Pottery Barn outlet store. While carrying them around, Drew said two different people stopped him and asked him where he found the chairs and if there were any more. No such luck. We got the last pair. In addition to that, multiple other people commented on how cute they were as they passed us. My favorite was a pregnant woman we passed on the way out who didn't talk to us but very softly and emotionally said "oh, cute chairs."

This has become our new snack location. Afternoon snack time is generally in the middle of playing, so it's been hard to get Jasper to sit in one place to eat. I've previously resorted to watching the Backyardigens with him (an activity generally reserved for nail clipping). But now with the table, because he cannot get up on the chairs on his own (but he can get down), I can keep him in one place long enough that he's interested in eating his snack. We have a good time here every day. :)
