Feb 19 - Big Boy Carseats!!

We decided to go out grocery shopping today and, since the boys are growing out of their baby carseats, we decided to bring out the big ones!! I know that the rules state that, in order to put your baby forward facing the the car, they must be at least 20lbs AND 1 yr old. They aren't QUITE 1 yet but we decided that since the boys are about 25lbs AND 9 days away from being 1 we'd probably be OK :) On a side note - thank goodness I bought the baby carseats that go up to 30lbs and not 22lbs or else we would have had to buy the convertible carseat for sure!

Gavin was still napping when we brought the carseats out but Cars was ready to help!!


Once Gav woke up we decided to do a trial run inside before taking them out to make sure we had the straps at the right height. He looks so little in his big carseat!! Well, in comparison to his baby carseat that is :)

Off to the store we go!! The boys seemed to like their new carseats!!

Anth took a pic of me pushing the boys into Costco. I have to admit I was a little excited about my new Olympic mitts I had just purchased at Zellers!

The boys did really well shopping, especially since we shopped right through their nap time. A couple baby cookies always help as well. On the ride home both of the boys fell asleep in their carseats and they looked SO uncomfortable! I'm sure at that point they were both wishing they had their baby carseats back. Poor guys!!


Once we got home and unloaded the car, Anth had to get ready for work. Emma called and suggested a girls night with Long Islands :) I cleaned up the house a bit then Em came over for some drinks - WAY overdue and SO fun!! Can't wait to do it again!!
