| Tony's expression says it all! |
For Father's Day, we decided that it would be a "fun" activity to put the car seat in my car in preparation of Baby Moreno coming soon. After 30 minutes of tugging on impossible belt straps, breaking nails, sweating profusely, and climbing in and out of the car to sit on top of the car seat while pulling and tugging to get the thing in nice and tight, we almost threw in the towel due to the sweat and frustration of getting the seat in correctly.
But, we persevered and after an hour, the seat didn't budge and was fastened in all the right places. The manufactures need to put another WARNING label on the car seat that reads,
"CAUTION: To put the car seat in correctly, you will sweat, roll your eyes at the horrible instructions in the manual, have a meltdown or two, and possibly curse a few times under your breath in order to ensure that you have been successful at putting the car seat in correctly. However, once it's in correctly, kiss your loved one and thank them for being patient, and treat yourselves to cool beer (dad, not mom of course) and a wonderful dip in the pool!"

Now that the seat is in, it's one more thing we can check off our "Things to do" list and it's an important one seeing as we can't bring the baby home without it. I have to admit though, I do feel a bit odd to be driving around with a car seat and no baby. In a few short weeks, Tony and I will be able to check that one off our list too.
