Notice the chairs/seats here? If you look closely, you can see a clip-on highchair in the back, all the way to the left. We decided that we didn’t want a big highchair for Lainey, we’d go with the clip on that worked so well for the triplets when they were toddlers. But, there isn’t enough room on that side for 2 chairs plus the clip on. So….
Randy is busy building a bench to use on one side of the table! Marley, Payton, and Ethan will sit on the bench and Abbey will sit on the other side with Lainey. I’ve always wanted to use a bench on one side and this was the perfect time. We couldn’t find exactly what we wanted, so Randy designed this one himself, to match our table (which, we bought at a “scratch and dent†sale years ago and LOVE). Stay tuned for the final product!
His two apprentices :)

Oh, how fun! Lainey is so blessed. She has no idea how much love is waiting for her!

Excellent idea!! Almost a “Walton” thing!! Is that Marley’s “pinky” blanket on her lap at the table? Wow, we gave her that when she was only a year old! Marley and Payton are doing a marvelous job helping their dad!! Can’t wait to see the “final product”!! If Randy designed it, I’m sure it’s gonna look great!!
Love, Mom

Cool! I can’t wait to see it! Look at those little carpenters. I hope nobody nailed their finger to the block of wood. THat would make for some pretty awkward questions. :-)

What a great idea! I love the idea of a bench at the table! It must be so exciting to be working on the final preparations for Lainey!

Love the bench in progress … reminds me of the “olden days” in Knightdale (the really old days, in the old house, not “The Pines”) … there had to be a bench to hold all the kids. Uncle Jack would be proud of you, Randy!
Praying for your Ladybug to come home soon.
Love you,
