The Big Switch

We have finally crossed that threshold. The one that's been dangled in front of us for months now, that we felt like we would never get to. Maizey has FINALLY gotten to the TWENTY POUND mark!! Its taken almost four months to get that last pound in... but today - at exactly 14 months 25 days old, she weighs in at a big old 20lbs 9ozs - the size of an average 10 month old. We have waited somewhat patiently to be able to make the big switch. You all know what I'm talking about... the day we all wait for and anticipate with much excitement. Ok maybe not all of you out there, but we sure as hell did. The day we could finally turn the carseat to forward facing! wooo - hooooo!!!! We didn't even wait until we got home to make the switch, Brian did it right there on the street, THAT'S how excited we were!!! Maizey? There was no big reaction, so its hard to say how she felt about it, but I like to think she was screaming with excitement on the inside!!
So, its a big day around here. We celebrated with an early lunch (of leftovers) and a slightly longer nap. Obviously, that was more Brian and I celebrating and Maizey getting the unbelievable short end of the stick. Sorry Missy, I promise the next time we celebrate, it will be all about you!
