Safety first

Myself n Mr A are very concerned of our children's safety in d car which is why Luq n Leia were trained to sit in their car seats since they were babies. Luq had always loved being in his car seat n nowadays he would scream "Eh! X pakai seatbelt lg!" each time i forgot to fasten his seatbelt. Leia however, was a bit difficult coz she easily becomes restless n couldn't stop squirming in her car seat. However, we didn't give up n eventhough she still squirms in her car seat once in a while, she's actually used to it already.

It's not only safe when they're all buckled up in their car seat/ booster seat but it actually makes driving/ travelling much easier once they are trained from small. I couldn't imagine myself travelling long distance n having to hold Luq or Leia. Must be tiring. In d US, u're not even allowed to bring home ur newborn if u don't hv a car seat installed in ur car. But then again, it comes back to people's mentality n culture. Not to forget d cost of buying a car seat which is not cheap. I always feel blessed n grateful whenever i see a child sitting between their parents on a motorcycle. Eventhough we are not rich but we could still afford to provide d basic necessities for our children.

Leia will be turning 16mo tomorrow n her current car seat/ baby carrier was getting too small for her as she's entered d age where she likes to explore d scenery while in d car. Therefore, it was time for us to buy her a new car seat. I have been browsing d Babyjaya website (d prices are quite reasonable compared to Planete Enfants) for months n showed Mr A d car seats which were within our budget. So off we went to Babyjaya in Ampang. Unfortunately, d branch in Ampang was smaller than d one in DU so there were limited choices. There was only 1 brand which was within our budget but luckily they had d color dat we wanted. As soon as we purchased d car seat, Mr A straight away installed it in d car n Leia instantly loved it.

The above photo is how our car looks from d inside. Before dis, Leia sits in front coz her old baby carrier was rear facing n Luq at d back but now Luq is d co- pilot while Leia sits at d back with me. If we were to hv additional members (children) in our family, Mr A needs to work really hard so dat he could buy us a MPV. At d moment, no MPV means no baby ;)
