new soft-touch tomato chair

Well, Eve's new chair arrived! It's really great. She sits in it in the morning before breakfast and watches TV. It's nice and low so she can interact with Josie (read: Josie can lick her face). Although the brown part looks like hard plastic, it's actually a soft foam that squishes when you squeeze it.



Another wonderful thing about this chair is that the foam part detaches from the base and can be used on a regular chair (we haven't tried that yet) or - even better - in her net swing!! We bought her a net swing (think of a really small hammock for your butt), but the weave of the net was getting so wide that her head would fall through! I suppose it's not surprising that we only paid 20 bucks for it. So we started using a blanket, but the top of the blanket would fall over her face. I was on a special needs parenting site, and a mom posted a picture of her child sitting in the foam liner in a net swing. Well, I stole that idea faster than you can say plagiarism. It's the perfect solution for the net swing. Eve loves it. I'll take pictures of her in the swing soon.
