One year ago Hailey failed her car seat test meaning she could not breathe and keep her heartbeat steady sitting in the seat. This and her subsequent failure of a second test kept her from using her car seat, relegating her to a car bed, until mid December. Today we retired her infant car seat and moved her up to a convertible car seat. She is well below the weight limit for the infant seat but just a half inch under the height limit.
While we were very happy to be done with the car bed last December, it is with some sadness that the infant seat use comes to an end. Buckling her into a seat inside the house and then simply "dropping" the seat into its base in the car is a thing of the past. So too is the ever available comfortable chair to put her in when out and about. Our baby is growing up.
The picture above with her body twisted against the closet door is how she chose to nap this afternoon.
This evening Hailey got her first ride in the new car seat as we drove her to Grandma and Grandpa's house to Trick or Treat.
