She's still not 20 pounds, but length-wise
she's getting tall. We were hoping to wait
until she hit 20 pounds so we could get
her a "big girl" carseat, but she's
shooting upward and is too cramped now.

I'm really not sure! I was planning on
making a post soon asking for
recommendations. We obviously don't want
to spend a whole lot of money (it's my dad
who's buying it, so I wouldn't feel right
asking for a super-pricey model) but I'd
like one that has good reviews and is safe
and durable.

I can't wait to see what Kaylee weighs
now. She looks so skinny & tall you'd
swear she didn't weigh anything, until you
pick her up & WHOA!

the fisher-price safe voyage!
it's made by britax (which are the best)
but sold under the FP name, so they're
like half the cost.

I'm guessing Alyvia weighs about 18 pounds
now. I stand on our scale with her and
that's what it looks like to me, but at
the doctor's office she never sits still
in their bucket scale and they never get
an accurate reading for her. She's pretty
lean though, but what else would she be
with parents like Aaron and I? 
Bridget, you made me paranoid a bit so I
went online and looked up the limits for
her seat! I think I need to measure her
 the height cap is
29 inches!

keeping her rear-facing even after she
reaches 20 pounds.

shop around before you do.. go online,

babiesrus.com compare prices .. print out
the cheapest and call adn see if people do
price matching.

I'll definitely keep it in mind, Bridget.
We'll most likely keep her rear-facing
unless the seat forces the passenger seat
all the way forward the way her infant
seat does. I'm pretty much over having the
glove compartment in my lap.

I got 90% on a big test I was really
stressed about that I didn't have time to
study for.
I didn't wake up exhausted today.
We got our phone connected today.
I'm the happiest I've been in so long, and
I'm in love with (and have) the kindest,
most considerate boy I've ever met, who
treats me, and most importantly Rowan,
like we're super special to him.

Tanya, that's awesome I'm glad things are
going well between you guys. Rowan can
definitely benefit from having a positive
male figure in her life and you so dearly
deserve to be happy and treated well.
