Don't judge me for being a horrible mom but Heidi spends a good portion of her day on the table. Heidi likes to compensate for her size by sitting in high places. It doesn't hurt that she is a major--and I mean
major climber. I took her to nursery to get her used to being there and she immediately made her way to the stacked chairs in the corner.
Heidi mostly likes to sit in high places with toys or books. She plays with whatever she has for awhile and then chucks it down shouting, "WO!" Then of course she wants you to collect it for her so she can do it all over again.
Heidi refuses to eat in her high chair. I have tried just about everything to get her to eat in her chair including turning it into the booster seat and pushing it to the table with us...no interest. She wants to be either sitting on our lap with toys spread all around the table, or her favorite, sitting on the table while we sneak in as many bites as we can (still not a big eater).
Heidi's favorite, favorite, favorite thing these days are letters. She points them out wherever we go and starts "singing" the ABCs. It sounds a bit more like, "hmmm, ahhh, oh, b, y..." It's hilarious. So naturally while she is eating she must have her magnetic letters strewn about so she can show you the letters in between bites. She knows the letters A, B, H, O, P, T, X, Y, Z so she really likes to throw, I mean, show you them while shouting, "Y"! "O"! "P"! It is an absolute riot.
If you saw how happy this little face is when she's on the table I'm pretty sure you'd let her do it too.

So cute! She is growing up so fast, and her hair is getting so long! Keira also likes high places. Her favorite thing to do when at the table is stand in her booster seat and say, "I be a giant!"
