A car seat is NOT a carrier!

Okay people!! I need to get something clear...A carrier is something you use to carry your baby, i.e. Lili, on you so that you can go shopping or just walk around with free hands... (I just happen to have a Baby Hawk and it is the best thing ever)! And a car seat is a car seat, not a carrier. It is a device used to put in your car, hence 'car' seat, for your baby to ride in the car safely. Alright, are we clear? Just want to make sure because I'm tired of saying I had Lili in her carrier and everyone thinking I'm lugging around an unnecessarily heavy car seat. Thanks for your time..I feel better now! (see example below : )
