DH dropped Abby off at Daycare this morning for me and left her carseat there. They have a little storage closet that they keep seats in for parents. When I went to get hers this afternoon it was absolutely covered in ants =( The assistant director and I spent about 30 minutes taking it apart and killing who knows how many ants. Upon installing it in my car I capped at least 2 dozen more. I got home as quick as I could before DD could get bit and in removing the entire cover and parts to wash, I killed many more. I wiped every nook and cranny with Lysol wipes and it's a PITA to get the whole thing apart and put back together again. I'm exhausted and really want to go take a shower because I can't shake the "ants are on me" feeling.
DD rarely eats in her carseat but I was horrified by the amount of crumbs in there! I haven't washed her cover since the Mother's Day milk fiasco so I guess it was due. I've been spot cleaning for the few spilled milk spots etc. ick. Just last night I was looking at the NEW Recaro Signo G2. I might look into budgeting for that and use her "old" one for DH's truck. I'm sick to death of taking it in and out of my car.
