    Wanted: Como cover - boyish

    Anyone have a Como cover to get rid of in boy colors? I may be getting a slightly used Como from a friend, but it has the pink cover on it and I don't think my 2 boys would like that! I might be able to trade, but I don't know yet if I'm even going to get the seat. LMK what you have, I'm in...

    Dreaming of Speed!

    Haven't seen you in a few days and wanted to check on how the babies are doing! How much longer do you have? Are they moving lots? How big are you now? You're almost to the point where you have dr's appointments every other week now, aren't you? How many ultrasounds have you had? We just...

    Lifesavers anyone?

    So, is anyone else going to Lifesavers? I will be flying in on Saturday night and then leaving on Tuesday night. Frank is staying in WA with my dad - 4 whole days without Mommy! He's never spent a night away from me, so it may be rough, but I think he'll do okay. My dad is so excited to have...

    3 across in Subaru Forester

    I got a call yesterday from someone who needs to fit 3 across in harnessed seats in a Forester (not sure of the year). She just picked up 2 foster kids on Thursday so we don't have the exact stats on them yet. One is 13 months, less than 20 lbs, in an infant seat right now. The other is 2...

    Regent covers?

    So, with a new baby on the way, the first thing I started thinking about was car seats, lol! We have a Britax Companion (given to us, never used!) that my mom is going to be sending to us on the barge next month (much cheaper than air freight, especially since we don't need it for another 9...

    Britax vs. Recaro

    I know a few of you have both Britax and Recaro seats and a gal I know on another message board is trying to decide which she wants to get for her dd (almost 4 yrs and 28 lbs, tiny). She was planning on a Britax (that's what she has now, not sure which one) but then she heard of Recaro and was...

    Husky/Regent vs. Decathalon?

    I'm having a hard time making the decision which seat to get Frank. He will be 2 (!) on the 23rd, he's about 35 - 36 inches tall, and 26 - 27 lbs. Right now he is rf in a RA, but the top of his head is at the top of the shell. I know he can be in it until the tops of his ears are at the top...

    Road Trip!!

    Frank and I are heading on a road trip in just over a week! I am very excited about it, but a little nervous. We will be driving the Car Seat Check Up van to Anchorage and then staying in Anchorage for a few weeks to see our friends. We have a 3 hour ferry trip then a 800 mile drive thru some...

    WooHoo!

    I passed my test! I only missed 1 question out of 100 (they checked our answers there so we could go over the ones that everone missed), and that was because I misunderstood the question. So, tomorrow is our big check up event, now I actually have to go out and use all this information in the...

    CPS Training

    Starts Tuesday! I can't wait, the only thing I am worried about is Frank and I are both sick right now, so if he's still sick I'm not sure who's going to watch him (can't go to daycare if he's sick and dh works on Tuesday. Wed and Thurs are no problem, dh is off, then Fri and Sat Frank is...

    Luau Cover?

    Anyone seen/felt this cover yet? What does this feel like? Is it the plushy velour fabric or a cotton blend? Let me know what you think about it, I'm trying to help a friend decide which on to get, it's down to Luau or Shadow Marathon, but she's worried about how warm the shadow fabric will...

    Where to attach rf tether?

    So, we got our car and I installed Frank's RA rf with LATCH and got a rock solid install. The only thing I can't figure out is where to attach the tether. It's a 2004 VW Jetta Wagon, I can't see anywhere on floor or under the front seat that I can put the tether strap. Anyone installed a rf...

    New Car!

    Well, we did it, we bought a new car. I am going to go pick it up this afternoon. We signed all the paperwork yesterday and they still had to clean the car, fuel it up, and check everything before we drive off with it. It's a 2004 VW Jetta Wagon, brand new even though it's last years model...

    EPS Foam Question

    So, I took my son's RA out tonight to clean it (we may be getting a new car tomorrow with LATCH, so I wanted to get it all clean, lol!). Once I got the cover off part of the EPS foam came off :eek: ! It's on the top part of one of the side pieces and it's a chunk about 2 inches tall by 5...
