ok today i vow to play catch up with the blog! the last 2 weeks in school have been insane! not to mention i got sick in the middle of it all so needless to say i was a bit slow with everything in my life! this saturday will mark 17 weeks! Its flying by! Recently ben and i went to check out strollers and car seats- who wouldve thought there would be so many options?! we really are basing what we buy on reviews we find online- i dont mind spending more money if it is going to last me forever! Plus, we like very modern decor and wouldnt mind having baby items that blend well into our home. I always say i do not want to walk in my house and see a ton of themed baby items lying all around...i just like the clean lines and simple designs...cartoons, or nickelodeon images i can live without! and everyone has their preference, this is just ours :) plus, they sale a ton of awesome modern baby stuff these days... right now my dilemma is deciding between a few high chairs. We knew we didnt like the big fluffy, plastic looking high chairs that flood the stores everywhere you go! Simple, clean, and modern will do just fine! plus, I really like the base on both of these versus the big plastic legs on others.. I only choose to start there bc i at least know a few i like which makes it an easier task to accomplish than car seats right now!
My 1st option, that i love!, is the Fresco Bloom high chair..this thing is amazing!
-it can hold an infant (the only one of its kind) bc it reclines back.
-the foot and tray table come off making it a cool lounger for baby.
-the foot rest adjusts for the growing child
- it has a hydrologic lift so it can later be placed at any height table or bar.
-It is on hidden wheels
-its uber moder
-the colors and chair pads are endless in color choices
The negatives that are keeping me from this chair is that everyone says it is a nightmare to clean, with over a million nooks and crannies, making the reviews for it on amazon suffer!! so for that, ive decided to shop around a bit...
The Fresco Bloom

the 2nd option is the Boon Flair..this awesome chair is pretty similar to the Bloom.
-it has a ton of awesome colors/ replaceable cushions
-it has a horn right at the crotch of the chair so baby wont slide out
-very modern
-is also a hydraulic lift
-is on hidden wheels
-the top of the food tray is smaller and comes off to fit right in the dishwasher
-has NO nooks to clean, its all one solid piece :)))
the negatives: the foot rest isnt adjustable like the Bloom, it also doesnt recline like the bloom
The Boon Flair
im considering a few others but havent totally decided if they are in the running yet or not!
Which do you like???
Which do you like???

Personally I like the first one. It has more tray room to catch messes. Who cares if you have more nooks and crannies to clean. A toddler is going to make a mess regardless...lol
ReplyDeleteSecond one looks muuuch more safe. There could b a time you're frazzled and forget to strap the baby in. First one looks unsafe...
ReplyDeletethanks! I love the look of the 1st one too!!!!! Its just so fun! and i agree that if you forget the straps the 1st could be unsafe but i hope to goodness i dont forget to strap them in! plus once they are "mobile" the tray would be in place as well...im just torn!
