New Shoes

Yesterday We bought our son new shoes. He’s a year and 2 weeks old and has been taking steps since 9.5 months. We bought him a pair and these are his second pair. They are OshKosh Size 6 (usa). We’re so excited. He still tries to take them off but we hope he gets used to it.

Car Seat Safety, Be Smart…

Last Staurday we turned my son’s seat forward facing. Yeah! I got an email from my sister, who just bought the next seat for her daughter. I came across this article in my email I get from BabyCenter: Car Seat mistakes

Please be careful, read the manual - and yes there are laws but there are also recommendations from the manufacturer. Um they made the seat they know it’s purpose and limits. I cringe seeing kids being held. Yes, at least once a week I see an infant being held in the front seat, guess which one… yep the driver! baby in one hand and the wheel in the other. maybe i will try to get a photo - i’mso in shock when i see it… they are just soooo uneducated. I mean we sat in the back seat unbuckled and surely w/o a booster. But I will never forget, after starting to wear it around 10 or so, i never stopped. I even remember telling my dad to wear his!

Anyhoot, please don’t try to “test the research/ knowledge gained” and/or “results of fatal car accidents” just buckle up and your kids too (nieces, nephews, friends…) I rather have them mad at me then not able to physically speak or breathe again. Harsh, yes , and a possible reality I rather not test!

as ‘they’ say… Buckle Up!
