high chairs

i need high chair help. any ideas on what kind to get? i'd like it to be table height so we can all sit together. either the clip on kind like this phil and teds high chair, or the kind that looks like a real seat, like this tripp trapp high chair by stokke (you know, but not $250).
what kind of high chair do you use?

griffin's weekend according to my iphone

griffin tries to grab everything we drink

we went to a jazz concert at rodney strong vineyards

and griffin wore protective ear muffs when the music started

griffin played with daddy at the concert

and then he fell asleep

scott's parents came into town to hang out and visit, and we painted the living room! i'll post about that soon.

5 months old

5 month old griffin chews on everything, finally loves his sophie the giraffe (see him making out with her in that picture?), and can almost sit on his own. he is a very mellow baby, takes several 1 hour naps a day (really, griff, you can't take a 2 hour nap? what the heck?!), sleeps 12 hours through.the.night, and still wears 0-3 month clothes. he's our peanut and we are so in love with him. i can't believe he's 5 months old already. it is going by too fast.

happy father's day

to the best dad in the world. this photo was taken when little griffin was just 3 days old, and it was our first time getting to hold him. we found out about griffles one year ago today, and he has been the most amazing gift. happy father's day, scott (one day late). we love you.

entryway

i want this entryway. the photos, the jars, the antlers, that succulent inside a cheese dome. it's all amazing and i want my entryway to look like this. scott's parents come into town on thursday and we are putting them to work! our big plans are to paint the living room and entryway (and maybe the hallway if we have time), change the layout of the living room, and get some paintings, pictures, etc. up on the walls. i'm so excited (and i'll post before, during, and after photos).

remember this?

remember this post from this morning? lies. all lies. i can't believe i jinxed myself like that. griffin has had a rough day. he's barely slept. he's only eating 3 ounces at a time, and he is just screaming because he's so tired. he finally fell asleep 10 minutes ago. we'll see how long this lasts for.

a conversation

brittany "i know you said you wanted a machete for father's day, but can i just get you popsicle molds?"
scott "that was the weirdest question ever".

side notes:
1. i was thinking of these popsicle molds and scott always talks about how he wants to make popsicles with griffin when he gets older.
2. scott really does want a machete so he can hack away all the bushes and flowers in our yard i hate
3. what scott really, really wants is a weed eater
