Baby Bear has outgrown his infant car seat, the one we used for Shelly till she was a year old. This weekend we purchased a new carseat for him, a monster of a seat that doesn't really fit in my backseat between the two booster seats for the other bear cubs in the family. But we crammed it in anyway. I wrestled it into place and today used it for the first time. I wrestled the baby into the seat, the seatbelts onto the other two and off we went to church. He looked comfy in there, and safe.
Now, onto the important part of the story. We spent a big chunk of money on a brand new toy for the older two. You'll never guess. It kept them entertained for hours yesterday and today, it fostered creativity and cooperation. It is a dog house, nerf-gun shooting range, jail, roadside produce stand... I forget what else it is. Oh yeah. It is a box. It had a carseat in it but didn't realize its true potential until the seat was removed and it was handed over to the children.
