I just thought it would be fitting to give a shout out to my friends who have had or are going to have more than one baby.  Recently a friend of mine gave birth to triplet boys, all of whom are doing well.  They were born at 34 weeks and are the cutest little guys!  Another friend of mine is due to give birth to twin boys in July.  Mom is having a little bit of a tough time, but I know she will stay strong and hang in there as long as possible.  It sure helps to have a great support sysem when you are pregnant, whether it be multiples or just a singleton pregnancy.  You know, my little girls are certainly outnumbered.  Between my friends’ kids and my nephew, there are 7 boys to my 2 girls (and that is just including my closest friends!)!!  Anyway, you haven’t heard the last of this multiples theme…..hhmmmm.

If anyone out there is listening……I just wanted to let you all know that very soon there will be a big announcement.  I am very excited to share the news with you….soon.  Stay tuned, it won’t be too much longer now.

Britax, one of the most popular brand of carseats, currently has posted a nationwide recall - the recall is on the Marathon series.  Here you will find instructions on how to determine if your carseat is part of the recall or not.  Britax is the maker of great, high quality car seats. The Marathon, Boulevard and Decathlon series can accomodate a child up to 65 pounds, which would eliminate the need to buy a booster seat, while the Diplomat and Roundabout series can hold a child up to 40 pounds.  Please check the law for your individual state, as the laws for child safety restraint vary state to state.  Another thing was that I thought the fabric covers on the carseats came in all sorts of fun patterns and prints.  Be sure to check them out online because a lot of times the stores only carry a select few.   Here are just two of many available.   The picture above is the Britax Marathon - Ashley Floral.  It retails for $269.99.
