ahahahh I agree that Brynne's new toy is much cooler, and if you didn't tell me about the recall, she'd be missin' out! ahahahaha Thanks for posting recalls for those of us who don't get those emails!!!

Unless we were just running to church or something, we used to take Kylee and Elijah's coats off in the car. Much easier to do now with a van. We always take coats off for longer trips, even to Orland. It just makes me feel better to know they are as snuggly in those seats as they possibly can be! I really cringe when I see kids with that chest strap down at their belly. It's pretty pointless to even have it if it's not armpit level like it's supposed to be. OK, stepping off my soap box...again. =)

Your "fart" instead of "part" could have been part of a Not Me! Monday post!

Rachel, I agree with you on the carseat covers. Plus, who wants to wrangle a wriggly, cranky (or sleeping) infant into a coat each and every time you go outside, only to have the coat make the baby too big to fit into the carseat?? That was our issue last winter, before the boys were walking and really needed coats. Of course safety is #1 concern, but really, on top of that, who wants to wrangle??

I like your recall updates. While they aren't as entertaining as your other posts, they are informational. So far I haven't had any recalled items.

Also, for the record, they recommend that babies are never in coats/snowsuits etc when in carseats. It's a safety hazard since it doesn't allow the seatbelts to be as tight as they are (not that most people buckle the seat belts properly anyway-the sherrif's dept. told us 85% of parents do not because they leave the chest strap too low). Anyway, my personal opinion is they should take all snowsuits and coats off the market for infants. That's what they make carseat covers for. Anyway, that's my 2 cents and a PSA for your readers since your one of the only people that read my blog. =) Carseat safety is a HUGE issue with me.

I love all of your updates regarding recalls. In fact, we did have the Jardine crib for Tyson and last year we called the company and we got a voucher for the price of the crib. Unfortunately, the price of the crib had gone down and I had to get a whole new style, brand, color, etc. because we wanted to get a crib that our voucher covered. I was really bummed about losing our first crib, because it was Tyson's and I had a picture in my head of all of my children using that wonderful cherry sleigh crib. I guess my child's safety is number one, but man I loved that crib!! :)
