180 degrees
As of this morning, Logan is now riding forward facing in his brand new car seat. We tried to keep him rear facing for as long as we possibly could, but now he's officially outgrown the weight & height requirements & needed to be turned around.
He loves it. And I mean, loves it.
He sits up higher & he can watch all of the cars driving next to us on the street. He can see Bill driving & me making faces at him from the side mirror. We roll his window down & his hair blows in the wind. He observes everything, happily kicking his feet. It's so cute.
It's also much easier to get him in & out of the car. There is even a nifty cup holder & snack tray for him. It has padding everywhere. This kid is riding in comfort.
It was hysterical when we first put him in. He didn't know what to think about it. You could see the confusion in his eyes, "wait! I'm supposed to be facing the other way!" But once he realized that this was the way it was going to be, he was grinning from ear to ear.
Wow, he's getting so big....
Our Roots
- Kristin
- Colorado
- I married my soul mate 10 years ago. We got married very young & we are very thankful that we did despite what other opinions may have been. It gave us a chance to grow up together & learn how to ride life's roller coaster ups & downs as a team. We had some good friends & adventures in Vegas when we started out. Then we hit a fork in the road & moved to Portland, OR so I could go to school & pursue a career in chiropractic. That's where we learned that sometimes life has plans for us other than our "perfectly mapped out" one. Bill got a promotion that moved us out to Colorado, somewhere he's always wanted to live, but a place where my thoughts of chiropractic school would die. Marriage is all about compromise, so we made the move to bigger & better things. As we continued to be successful at work, it felt like there was something missing. That's when I started to think about having a baby. As a stay at home mom to Logan, life was everything we wanted it to be. Then we were crazy enough to do it again & soon added Carter to the family. This is our adventure raising two boys in the Rocky Mountains.

How cute! Did you all take pictures? Hailey loves facing forward. We were going to wait as long as possible too, and then all of a sudden she started being able to kick the back seat with her impossibly short legs which made the car seat bounce...so we thought it was time!
I know it's safer, but I can not wait until we can turn Lani around! I am glad that he is enjoying the new "view"!
