Shep hasn’t been too impressed with the whole idea of a high chair lately, but he’s been putting up with it. Today he fell asleep without eating lunch, so when he woke I had lunch all set up on his high chair. As I carried him to the chair, his eyes traveled to the small tables and chairs I had set up for our house project, and he started wailing. Pointing and grunting, it became clear that lunch was to be served at that table.
He ate that whole meal proudly at the table. Stopping every now and then to get up, walk around the table, and sit back down. He was beaming through lunch.
He’s the baby right now, and he looks so small in comparison to Neko. But I need to remind myself he needs to take these steps toward being a big kid, too.
