I had the funniest dream last night, just had to share.
I dreamed that I was working in a church nursery (or something like that) -- looked out the window and saw a parent installing a Vantage RFing. I put the baby I was holding on the floor, told somebody (no clue who) to watch her, and RAN out to the car. I asked the parent if she'd been at the check earlier (she had) and if that's how we'd shown her to put the seat in the car (it wasn't.) So I told her it wasn't safe, and turned it around, set it properly on the seat, and put the six-year-old in it -- seatbelt fit beautifully (yeah right!), mom was happy. Then I turned my attention to the 18mo in the center; RFing in what was supposed to be an AOE (only it looked like those Eddie Bauer FFing only seats.) It was installed center with borrowed LATCH, loosely, to accomodate the fact that it was flat on its back. The part that should have been the "bottom" was flat against the seatback.
Weirder still was the fact that my mom, uncle (her brother) and aunt (dad's SIL) -- so opposite sides of the family -- were packing up some things in the parking lot and had no problem waiting for me to finish "because that's more important." They normally roll their eyes at my CPS stuff, lol.
It was super-strange. (Guess that's what I get for reading carseat stuff before bed?) The only other carseat dream I've had is one in which I dreamt a friend's niece was 56lbs at 8mos, and I was beside myself, hysterical because I knew there was no seat in the world she could RF in. LOL!
Anyone else had any weird carseat-y dreams lately?
