Finally Forward Facing

Trevor is turning two soon and we finally decided to turn his car seat forward facing.  We didn't turn him at one because he was still under 20 lbs and shortly after his first birthday I read that a child under one is 5 times more likely to be injured in a car crash if they are facing forward, so rear facing he stayed and happily I might add.

Sunday night before bed we got in the truck, put Trevor in his "new big boy car seat" (which is the same car seat he has had for a year now, it just faces the other way now) and went to look at Christmas lights.  The first thing Trevor noticed was the stop lights.  He kept hollering out "green" and "red".  He thought they were so cool.


Driving around this week has been an exciting experience for Trevor.  He loves it when we go through a puddle and make a splash on the sidewalk and loves to tell me that the light has turned green and I should "GO!"  Trips in the car are much more fun when you can see where you are going.
