Emma's Big Birthday Gift

Martin & I both decided that Emma needed a new car seat rather than any toy or play item. Not quite so fun, but it was a definite need! We had a $5 gift card and a 15% coupon for Babies R Us, and when I suggested it, he was online and for some reason he went to Craigslist. There was a forward facing seat that had just been posted and was in our area. They said it was like new, but you never know. He called and talked with the woman and decided to go right then.

Well, it was almost time for Emma to go to bed and she was cranky so we did not go with him. I told him my biggest concern was that it was CLEAN! When he got there to see it, it really was 'like new"! It had been bought for some grandkids who had only used it a few times. It was wrapped in plastic, completely clean, not dusty and really was almost new! What a blessing it was to find such a good seat and it only cost us $20!



Emma had grown so tall that in her infant car seat her poor little legs were bent at the knees, like she was sitting in a chair! She loves being able to see us. The only thing she has to get used to now, is falling asleep in it, as her poor head flops over!!
