A Car Finally!

Daddy finally bought his 1st car, an used Kia Rio OPC car, after very long consideration. Since the birth of Celest, there were many times when the idea of buying a car popped up but we often ended up against buying it. We were concerns of the additional costs caused by owning a car. At least without this burden, we need not watch much of our spendings. With car, we need to watch our spending carefully but at the same time, we can start going to inaccessible locations, such as beaches/parks/places, where daddy is reluctant to go without a car.

Now that we got a car, the next thing is to get a car seat and start to train Celest to sit on it. In her past car rides, she would be climbing all over the car which is dangerous. I always envy Patsy as Perle can sit in a car seat with no fuss and even dozed off to sleep when the car is moving.
Perle had been using a car seat since she was born. Hopfully Celest would adapt to being strapped up in a car seat. Nevertheless, it must be successful as I need to move her to the front passenger seat so that her 'Mei Mei''s car seat can be placed behind. I don't think there is much room for me to sit in between the two car seats.

We just came back from Robinson Centerpoint and bought a Nania car seat for $109. Training for Celest will commence shortly. Haha. Meanwhile, will keep a lookout for a better car seat promotion for baby as price is linked to quality. I don't really wish to buy a cheap model that meet the basic criteria but quality is lacking. There were few instances when after buying a 'cheaper' item, we had to repurchase a new better quality ones but more expensive lor.
