They are wonderful people, amazing parents, and I know they would treat our children very well. There house would be very full -- but our will would allow them to use the insurance money for whatever needs they have -- including adding bedrooms, larger vehicles, etc. Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01418041735007521091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4262449622891490445.post-36204572347177922902013-05-21T18:35:49.323-05:002013-05-21T18:35:49.323-05:00It actually is Jamie~ I love the Frontier- they ju...It actually is Jamie~ I love the Frontier- they just release the Pinnacle last week. Before it came out, I was looking at the Frontier though. The one thing that sells me on this one is the quick lock new technology. I LOVE that on the car seat. Yes, they are worth every penny. We started with the chaperone- that is the one Reid is currently in now, and went to the Boulevard 70 for Hayleigh- it's the convertible kind. Now that Reid is out growing his pumpkin seat, we are just moving Hayleigh up, and giving her seat to Reid to use for a bit. I love how sturdy the seats are, and I really notice a big difference between them and the other seats out there- they are all so flimsy.

Leave those family problems behind you.

Besides, should you choose to have another and it's a girl, less shopping would be needed = less stress. In addition, if I should ever have a girl, I could borrow OR you could obviously save clothes for Hayleigh to keep stowed away to do with what she wants when she is your age.

Mothers just have a knack for taking whatever life hands them. Look at your Mother, Grandmother, Aunts and friends -- God gave women something special to be able to handle it all. Not saying it is easy but what in life is.<br /><br />You and Allen will know when the time is right again--so don't worry--you have done enough of that in the last 30 days all for it to turn out wonderful.<br /><br />Trust your instincts and just enjoy your life and HayleighKathy Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05024098408927526869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4262449622891490445.post-17120295148014398632010-04-14T10:36:19.269-05:002010-04-14T10:36:19.269-05:00Kathy- you really made my day!
