Stroller, Check. Carseat, Check.

Yesterday I was telling someone that we went out and purchased our Stoller and Carseat (after much research) and their response... "Why? It's so early.  Maybe someone wanted to get that for you at your shower."  Seriously?  Umm... It's a month till Christmas and under 2 months until we are considered 'full term'.  Not only that, I'm having a shower after baby is born as we are not sharing the gender.  Do people actually wait to buy a stroller till after?  Also, there are people who go into labor early all the time, I really hope I'm not one of them but isn't it better to be prepared?  And lastly, I hear that the further along you are the more uncomfortable you get, so doesn't it make sense to get as much done as you can?  I don't know, maybe it is to early but as a 'planner', I didn't appreciate the comment.  Rant over.

Anyways, so I heard yesterday from a friend that the stroller and carseat they wanted were backordered and they had to wait 6 weeks for them to come in.  Of course this got me worried, so right after work we went and bought them. 

Stroller and Carseat Selection

We decided to go with the Britax B-Agile Stroller and B-Safe Carseat.  Mainly because of the ease of use and how light they are.  It's so easy to fold with just one hand.   I think the dogs were more curious than anything about what was in the boxes.

Putting together the Britax B-Agile

I love not having to put things together and husbands are just so great at it! Then again, this looked super easy, I don't think it even came with instructions.

Pez in Carseat

And of course, we had to test it out so we strapped Pez into the Carseat.  It was so hard to try to get a photo and the only one I got that wasn't blurry, his one eye is closed.  Oh well, still a little cutie!
