Forward Facing
After an hour and a half, we finally turned The Boy's car seats around yesterday. Two different vehicles + two different car seats = two cranky parents! Although The Boy met the age and height requirements to turn forward on his first birthday, he didn't weigh enough. He was short by a half pound.

A list of New Year's ...

I want to take down my tree, but don't want to feel like I have rushed the spirit of Christmas right out of our home. Though it seems that is what we do year after year. I feel ...
