So in our continued effort to stimulate the economy and do our part in getting the world economy back on track we have made a few more well thought out purchases.
First we bought a Swedish high-chair "Svan"(want to make sure some of the money trickles back to the homeland). I refused to buy one of the typical hideous American high-chairs made of plastic and of enormous dimensions. This chair is rather compact in its foot-print and can be converted to a normal chair that grows with Maya. I'm sure she will be thrilled about having this chair until she goes off to college......
We also got a ridiculously expensive French chewing/teething toy, Sophie la girafe,. According to the package this has been the favorite toy for all kids since 1961. Maya was not impressed at all and threw it on the ground. She much prefers her stacking blocks. I think she might become an engineer or an architect.
To round it off we bought a new car seat for Maya as well since she has now grown out of her infant seat. Dad of course insisted on the safest brand known to mankind, Britax. Mom however, stopped Dad from going all out, with the top of the line model that has side impact protection, click tightening and some other fantastic features I can't remember anymore. We settled for the Britax Decathlon, made in the USA to support domestic manufacturing as well.

Nice purchases! The Sophie chewing toy is a bit of a scam for the money you pay, but don't give up yet. She may learn to love it. Lucia certainly doesn't like it any less than the other toys she has.
We borrowed the same chair at someones house this weekend and didn't use the little top table part. Lucia leaned over and almost fell out!
What he said. I was just going to post basically the exact same comment.
Great pictures!
ouch, I hope we have better luck with the chair. We'll make sure to use the harness and the table to keep her locked down tight.
Nu har jag kollat på Britax hemsida och sett istruktionsvideorna. Den verkar ju bra så det är ok att sätta Maya där tycker jag.
