Big girl car seat

Todd and I made the decision to go ahead and move Aubrey to her big girl car seat. We were both tired of carrying her in her infant seat because the 2 together weighed over 20 pounds. Plus, she hated sitting in that seat and always felt so hot when I got her out of it. So, we went to have her seats installed in both cars and inspected. We had 3 people working on each seat and it was crazy to see how tied down these seats are. The only frustrating thing about putting her seats behind the passenger side is the passenger will now be eating the dash. I am not comfortable with that, but there was not a whole lot that could be done about it. She's still not in love with being strapped in a seat, but she feels cooler when I bring her out and does pitch nearly the same level of fit while being strapped in. It is a little sad to be putting her infant carrier away and to watch her sit in a high chair at restaurants, but overall I think everyone is pretty pleased with the transition.
