Aysia and the car seat

Well, every day can't be perfect, can it?

You definitely tried my patience last night, my little one! I came to get you at school, and you were having a good time in the classroom. We bundled you up, and it was freezing and windy out, and I didn't have any mittens for you, just a coat and a hat. So when we were about to go outside, I picked you up so we could get to the car quickly. Mind you, I'm 8 months pg, so I love for you to be independent and walk, it's getting harder and harder to pick you up, but with how cold it was, getting to the car quickly was first priority.

Well, you wanted to walk. You started to throw a tantrum while I was carrying you to the car, but then as I was trying to get you in the car seat, you just wouldn't let me. You squirmed, arched your back and screamed. For 10 minutes. While I stood outside trying to wrangle you into the seat. Oh boy, I wanted scream!!! But I kept my calm, and finally I guess you got tired and I got you in the seat.

You sure have a strong will, little girl!

So later that night, even though you've been preferring to have daddy rock you to sleep, I insisted on doing it so we could have some snuggly, cuddly time together. I love that!
