Finally Forward

Today, we turned Barrett's car seat around. I just couldn't take it anymore knowing that he was cramped in the back seat facing in a direction where he couldn't see out. He could barely even stretch his long legs before, but now they practically dangle off the edge!
He loves it. Although we haven't traveled very far in the past hour...we did go for a ride up to Taco Bell just to see his initial reaction to facing forward!!!!
Before we turned the seat around, Matt wanted to read the instructions on how to properly install the seat in the forward position. Barrett was such a good helper. He read the steps to his daddy. Yes, Barrett read them!!! He coached his daddy the whole way through. As you can see, he was extremely serious about these step by step directions. He wanted it to be perfect, safe, and correct. Now WHO does that sound like????

SO sweet! He looks so happy facing forward. I think it makes all the difference. Ella loves when I look at her through the rear view mirror. She thinks it is so funny!
