We switched the boys seats this week. Their little legs had grown to the very limit of their infant seats. The infant seats are nice in that you can carry your sweet bundles into wherever you may need to go without ever actually taking them out of their seats. However, the weight of two almost 20lb boys in carriers on each arm gets old. So we made the switch. Of course they're still facing backwards and I double checked everything to be sure they're in properly. With Truitt we actually went to the police department and had them show us how to put his seat in. We've been out and about this week without any problems. But I've made sure to always have our double stroller with us. My arms would be very full otherwise. A double stroller is definitely a must have for a family with twins.
It is a little bitter sweet though. Switching their seats is just a small reminder that they're growing up. They came home in those infant seats. I remember putting them in for the first time at the hospital and tucking receiving blankets because they were so small. It seems like a dream sometimes, especially with their first birthday quickly approaching! Oh my...how blessed we are to have these boys in our lives!
