It's actually a smaller rocking chair so it's the perfect size for me. The cushions are actually in good shape but not the color scheme I'm going for in Michael's room. I bought some fabric to try to cover them, I might need your help mom! I haven't determined whether I can paint over it or if I need to remove the paint and start over. I don't think I'll stain it - if it is even possible. I want to freshen up the white & cover the cushions with a pretty green fabric. What do ya think? 
Oh yeah back to the title of my post. Yesterday while we were out Michael would whine a little and say Mum mum mummm. I think he knows what it means now. He was saying it in his highchair when he was done too, of course along with whining.
Another update on Michael, he has tooth number 2! On Sunday he also stood by himself for about 5 seconds. I was pretty excited.

Cute chair Kels, I think that whatever you do with it will be great. Happy Michael fills out that chair, there won't be much room for you to sit in it too ;)
Love Shelb
Very cute find. I can't wait to see how you fix it up. Michael is just learning all kinds of new things--what a smart boy!
Just sand it a little and throw some more white paint on there. If you are worried about lead (which I never really think about), you can get a let swipe test at Lowes/Home Depot, I believe.
Make sure you wash those cushions on hot/hot with a lot of bleach, then just measure them, make som pillow case/slip cushion type things, and sew em' up. It's super simple. Let me know if you need help.
p.s... cute chair- wish I would have seen it first! I hate my rocker/glider... want to trade? ;)
I just want to clarify that Michael was already standing when he was standing by himself it's the fact that he didn't fall immediately when he let go.
Cute chair Kelsey and a great buy. Can't wait to see how you dress it up. Mattie is going to nuts for your new background. I can just hear it now. "Have you seen Kelsey new background"?
Michael is getting cuter and cuter if that is even possible. Those legs are killing me with pinchable delight.
OOh your project looks like fun. I would probably just paint the chair and make some cushion covers. Well actually I would probably "just think" I was going to do all of that and then 10 years later it would still be sitting around in my attic as one of my "to do" projects. Hopefully, you won't take after me! Mom
Michale is such a little cutie! He sure catches on to things fast! I think he looks adorable in that chair with that big happy grin!
That is a great find Kelsey. I can't wait to see it after the makeover.
