    Graco 4ever All in One or Graco Smart Seat AIO?

    I've narrowed it down to these 2 seats for our new baby to use from birth. Any thoughts or ideas on which one is better for a newborn? My babies range in size from 7-10# at birth. Our infant carrier is expired and this is our last baby, so I don't want to buy another one. I'm driving a 2012...

    3 across in an '03 Highlander?

    I've got a friend with 15mo twins both RFing in SS1 in an '03 Highlander right now and is expecting a suprise #3 around Christmas (I think). Is it possible to get 3 across in the Highlander so she'd not have to buy another car? The twins are presumably getting close to outgrowing the SS by now...

    We were in a wreck today...

    Me and the kids were driving on the highway today and I noticed there was a wreck in front of us and a sign "accident ahead, slow down" so I got to the right lane and did just that. Well, some chick waited until the last minute and then cut me off. Fine...it was annoying, but I dealt with it...

    What should I do?

    DS is RFing in a BV. We went to the doc for the first time since last May:o and I was FLOORED when the nurse said he weighed 32lbs. I had no idea. I knew he was getting heavier...but I didn't think he was THAT much heavier. He's quickly approaching the 33lb mark, but he's only 23 months old...
