Big Boy Day

Today, Jackson reached a big boy milestone. Not only did he get his second round of shots, he graduated to his big boy carseat. Our old carseat was rated for up to 21 lbs. and Jackson is now approaching 18, so I guess we could have waited, but honestly, getting him into that old one was becoming more like stuffing him into it. Bethany got online and found a really great deal on the Britax Marathon LATCH car seat with the Crocodile cover. This car seat was recommended by several people we know and let me tell ya- it's money well spent. It has a lot of really great features that make it so much easier to use than any other one I've ever used. I find it to be a really 'common sense' car seat. Needless to say Jackson loves his 'First Class Ride'. He's finally able to see out the windows as we drive, and he didn't make a peep all the way to the Doctor's office this morning. Also, this is a convertible seat so he can stay in it up to 65 lbs. We're excited to have it.
