Guess who's rolling...

Kaiden is! He still doesn't roll from tummy to back, but I think that's just because he *hates* being on his stomach. He IS rolling from back to tummy, though he hasn't let me witness it yet... I lay him down in the crib for his naps during the day, on his back. After he wakes up, I go down to get him, and he's not only sideways, he's on his belly! He's been doing this for almost a week now, I'm sure I'll get to witness it during playtime soon enough. :)

He's also sitting up completely unassisted now! He's getting to be such a big boy! For the longest while he could sit on his own, but he'd throw himself backwards almost immediately. Now he's sitting up for extended periods, and no flinging himself backwards!

In other news, K got his new carseat. It's a Britax Boulevard, and I LOVE it! It was very easy to install, and I love the a
djustment knob to change the height of the straps. No more taking the seat apart when baby gets taller!

The belly pad is a bit of a pain, but if that's my biggest complaint, it's still an excellent car seat!

Taxes are fun?

I've been waiting "patiently" for my W-2 to arrive in the mail, and it finally came today! I never thought I'd be happy to file my taxes! For the past 4 years I've filed online through Tax Slayer. It's very quick to do, it takes me about 20 minutes to file. Of course, since we're living in an immediate gratification type of world, I set my refund up for direct deposit, which makes it even quicker.

Now the wait begins... Is it bad I already have plans for the money? First thing is buying K a new car seat. "Little" guy is getting too big, he barely fits in his Graco Sungride anymore. We'll be buying a Britax Boulevard. Some of the features include true side impact protection, ability to stay rear-facing until 33lbs, and forward-facing until 65lbs. Truly a wonderful seat! I just hope I can find it on sale somewhere, it retails for approx. $300 otherwise!
