Kicking and Carseats

Well I'm 22 weeks now and I must say Mason is kicking all the time.. I can even see him kicking on the outside! I get tired extremely easy and that's something I'm not used to. I'm usually always moving and with this pregnancy I have had to take a back seat to a lot of things. I'm not able to do any of my photography sessions so that's really hard on me.. buuuttt according to the doctor Mason is growing perfectly so that's all I can hope for. Here's a video below showing just how hard he is kicking at 22 weeks. Ignore the movie playing the background LOL

So while we were out yesterday we stopped at BuyBuyBaby. If you haven't checked it out, you need to. It's owned by Bed Bath and Beyond and is a HUGE mega baby store. We registered there for most of the stuff and then Target as our other. Got side tracked......

Anyways.... We went there to check out the car seats, strollers, and convertible car seats we registered for to make sure we liked them.. We ended up switching the infant car seat for a different one but overall we LOVED what we picked out.. Here is what we ended up with.

Baby Jogger City Mini GT If you have checked it out you need to.. Watch the video on how it folds up. We were literally so amazed at this stroller, we were like two kids in a candy store. It's super light weight so I am able to pick it up on my own and I LOVED LOVED this teal color. It was gorgeous.

For our infant car seat we ended up switching to the Cybex Aton 2. We started to get the Britax b-safe but after seeing it and feeling it we hated it.. The technician liked the cybex much better and I have several friends say that they liked it too. So that is the one we ended up with. Plus it fits on our stroller with a stroller attachment. It felt much more comfortable and you could definitely tell it was very sturdy. They also had high safety ratings.

For the convertible car seat, we went with the highly rated Diono Rainer. It was also good in safety and several friends said they loved it. It will work for up to 120 lbs so it will be the only car seat we need after the infant car seat. 

For the most part I think we got our registry down pat. The major things are on our buybuybaby and our crib and dresser is at Target. Who would have thought it was so hard to pick everything out. I'm so excited to start buying all this stuff and get ready for the little Monkey. OH OH OH and my maternity sessions are coming up soon. I can't wait for those either... anyways.. just a little update!

Love,
