About-face


We finally turned Ashlyn's car seat forward facing.  Most people do it at 12 months, but the new recommendations are to rear face until 2 years!  We tried it as long as we could, but decided to turn her seat around for several reasons: 1. I think she may get car sick...I certainly do.  I can barely walk backwards without getting queasy. 2. Her knees were up to her chest! 3. It is so much easier to entertain her from the front seat.   4. Those rear facing mirrors SUCK! 5. She was missing out on all the action.  Except for road trips when she could have a staring contest with the dogs!  All in all I think it was a good decision.  She seems happy with it (although you wouldn't know it by this picture:)
