Day 112: New Carseat!

 Michal still has a little ways to go in her infant "bucket" seat (2" and about 10 lbs), but we decided to take advantage of a great coupon and some gift cards and headed over to the big box baby store to get her car seat earlier this week.  I'm a bit of a researcher, so I'd had the brand and make of the seat picked out for MONTHS already (It is the seat with the highest score, the only "excellent" crash test rating according to my favorite consumers' bureau, and a price tag of at least a hundred dollars cheaper than the popular Cadillac of car seats).


It is not easy to take pictures of her in the seat, I've discovered, especially if I want a straight on shot.  This seat is current in the smaller of our two cars (the one that gets better gas mileage, so we are using it more often), with the bucket in the larger car, so in order to get this shot, I had to prop the camera up on the headrest, attempt to glance at the screen to see the shot, and then hit the button.  This was the better of the two shots, and it still isn't great.  She's still getting used to her new ride, and has already fallen asleep in the seat, although her head was drooped over so far that it was near her belly button.  Must find a solution there.


It was half of a lazy day today, so I took a few more pajama baby shots. She's cute, what can I say.

 Smiles... I feel like her eyes are really staying in that green category.  

Who knows where they'll end up.

 Note: on hands and sort of on knees.  At one point, I could definitely see her stomach was totally off the ground.  I feel like the clock is now ticking down to mobility.

People seemed to enjoy the dog-baby photo from yesterday.  Here is another.  

I love his paw propped up on the table leg.  She lurrrrrves him.
