After 19-plus months of making do with one car seat and two cars -- which meant that Drew and I were constantly taking stuff out of our trunks and putting it in the other person's car, juggling our schedules so that one of us had my car (which has the car seat) when it was their turn to take Rachel in to daycare -- we finally broke down and got her a bigger car seat.
Drew bought it today; it cost $180 and looks like something NASA designed. It has armrests, a cup holder and it converts to a booster seat so that we won't have to replace it -- she'll just go right to seat belts when she's old enough! It's also forward-facing so she can see everything passing by as we drive home.
We'll replace the seat in my car when she's 2, and that will be last car seat we'll have to buy. Yay!
Of course, this means my little girl is growing up. She WANTS to grow up, Drew reminded me. Still, the day we get rid of the car seats for good will be a sad day for Rachel's mommy.
