I posted these on another thread in the car seat forum but thought
I'd share them here too:) .
Allie is 10 months old and Katie is 3 and a bit.

The pink showercap pic is adorable!! They are cutie pies:)

I have a question for you though- is your older daughter outgrowing the Roundabout? It looks like her head is well above the shell. Didn't Britax amend their directions on that issue so that the tip of the ears rule is no longer valid- you go by top of head? I thought I read that in someone's post. Maybe someone can clarify.

Thanks for sharing the pictures!

Yes, the amended this rule in regard to rear-facing. They used to say a child could rear-face until the tips of the ears went over the top of the seat shell. They changed that. Forward-facing, it is just like all other seats: outgrown by height when either the shoulders go over the top slots OR when the tips of the ears go over the top of the seat shell.

Your girls are cuties!

Thanks everyone:) !

Melissa,
The seat cover on the RA is called Flower Power.
The very first Britax I laid eyes on was a RA in Flower Power
and ever since then I have tried to get my hands on one and finally
succeeded:p . It's a really cute cover but I must say I like the Aloha better because it's sooooo soft and cozy!

Yoshieandluke, as Jenny said, that rule was for RFing but she dosen't have much room in the seat by the FF rule either. She's got about an inch and a bit
until she's even with the top slots and her ears are getting closer and closer....I don't know if she'd make it to 4 or not. Darn, now I'm gonna have to buy a new seat:D ....
