The post title has a two meanings, really. First, we turned Olive forward-facing in the car. She is 25.5 pounds and 32" tall. It was time. She LOVES it. I think she feels like she's more part of the action, and is all smiles every time I turn around to talk to her at a stoplight. (Do you hear honking? Me neither,)
Also, I'm about to turn 30 (January 22). I've been doing a lot of thinking about my life up until this point, and how much has just...happened. It's been a wonderful blessing, all of it, the good and the bad. I think it's good to think back and remember where you came from, what has made you, and who you want to be. For me, turning 30 is a milestone for sure, but I'm not going to have a mini crisis about it, because it's all about facing forward and making your time here the absolute best it can possibly be.

ReplyDeleteThe 30's are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter is 16 months and howls and howls in her rear-facing car seat at times. Its like nails on a chalkboard! I almost pulled over on the side of the road to turn the seat over this past weekend. I stopped myself and told myself that I would do some more research on the matter. I found this in my research and decided that it was convincing enough to wait. I mean, she's 5 times safer rear facing. Guess I will endure the howling for a longer while and I hope that she just gets used to it.
