Oh, poor Dylan. They all say that kiddo numero uno is the guinea pig....SO TRUE!! So here are a list of things that I learned with Dylan that Olivia will benefit from:
- Rear-facing car seats can be tethered!!!- Lucky for Dylan we never had to test the strength of my installation techniques on his car seat. I swear he would have flown right into the front seat if we had ever been in an accident. Olivia on the other hand is all but crazy glued into her chair, which is surgically attached to the car...latches, tethers, buckles, harnesses, etc.... to the moon LaLa.
- Broken Leg Prevention- Lower the crib before the baby starts to pull up.
- White noise machines are great!- Olivia never hears the chaos that her brother causes while napping because of this wonderful invention.
- Never too young for swim lessons!- Dylan is signed up at the YMCA now (he's 2 1/2) and it is so fluffy and boring. So I signed both kids up to start survival swimming through ISR beginning 9/1. Olivia is getting a 2 year head start on Dylan.
- Small blankies prevent falling- Dylan's inky is about the size of a crib...LaLa's is about 6 inches by 6 inches...much safer. (Sorry for those falls Linus...I mean Dylan.)
