Well, I had our car seat installation checked this morning. It’s a hot day to be standing around in the Texas heat but I suffered through it.

I think I’ll give myself a B for my installation. We have 3 Britax car seats in a mini van. The infant’s seat was too close to the front seat so we had to rearrange. We also had our toddler’s seats a little too reclined. They helped me with the adjustments, set up the tether, and showed me how to install the car seats. I was happy that there wasn’t too much movement in our seats so I had done that right. There was a slight tilt to one of the toddler seats and they showed me a trick that let me pull it tight without getting the tilt.

I also agreed to a research study so I’ll be tested in 2 weeks to see how much I learned. If you haven’t had your seats tested, it’s worth the time and many organizations do it free.

I went to Childrens in the Dallas area and was very happy.

Nationwide, look at seatcheck.org or search in your local community.

Well, I was planning to post about Dr. Sears Vaccine book but haven’t finished it yet. I think I have a week until our newest daughter’s next doctor visit so expect to see the post soon.

Every since Jason’s Deli started serving chocolate syrup without high fructose corn syrup, we’ve been looking for some. We found some at Whole Foods. Ah!Laska Chocolate Syrup. Organic, non-dairy, peanut free, gluten free, and tasty. Everyone had chocolate milk with dinner. There’s hot cocoa mix too.

They’ve even got a coloring page and word search for the kids.
