My 3-yr-old's safety reminder

We were about to pull away from a restaurant tonight where it was my husband's turn to put my 3-yr-old son in his seat. He put my son in his seat, then received a phone call, got distracted, and got in the drivers seat and started to pull away. My son yells, "Wait! I'm not buckled!" We immediately stopped, praising our son for letting us know. Way to go, Tor!

My DD is great about that too. doesn't happen often, but when it does she yells --"hey, you forgot my buckle!!!" Then I feel horrible about myself, but so glad she realizes it's important.

My oldest got good at this when I had new mommy brain with my second. Now, she buckles herself in, so she loudly says one click, two clicks, three clicks. Okay I'm safe mommy. and she FLIPS if I start to back up before she is all the way buckled.

Haha! Thats awesome. My son does that too, except its usually me who forgets. The other day I bucked my daughter in and got distracted because she was asking me some long, drawn out question, I got in the car and I hear my 4yr old say "what about me mommy?" I looked back and everyone was buckled by him. I felt so bad.
