Oscar is now big enough, that if he has a drink of water, he's no longer rated for rear-facing car seat travel due to being too heavy. Consequently, I pulled the straps and bits out of their rear-facing position, puzzled through the manual, and put them into front-facing position this week. Oscar seems to like seeing what's coming and keeping an eye on the parents while travelling (since Vivien was born, Elizabeth usually sits up front with me, 'cause it's crowded back there otherwise).

Vivien's first concerted hand-eye coordination seems to be blocking my attempts to trim her nails. I did trim her fingernails in two sittings yesterday, but it was slow going.
