Car Seat/Stroller

Thanks to Chris and Sue our car seat and stroller combo arrived on our doorstep last weekend. It is extremely fancy, the Chicco Fit 30! Whoo hoo! Anyways, as most already parents know, some assembly is required on almost all baby stuff.  Mike is in his nesting mode and was very excited to put it together, which was comical to watch, to say the least. Some of the best quotes from Mike were as follows:

1. "I feel like everything is connected, so how is it supposed to come apart?!?" (this was after about 5 minutes struggling to unfold the stroller after getting it out of the box.)

2. After looking for the directions for  10 minutes..."Oh that's a great idea! What genius decided to put the directions in the middle of the stroller where its all folded up!!"

3. While putting on the wheels..." Wouldn't it look cool if there were spinners on these wheels?"

4. "I am gonna practice folding and unfolding it, so I look like a cool Dad."

Needless to say, it was a fun day to watch Mike put it together... and I tried to show off to everyone about how easy it is to put up and down and of course I had to ask Mike for help... go figure!

Baloo was of course helpful the whole time.  He really focused on the box to help out.

And here is the finished product!! (1.5 hours later) Good job Mikey!!
