Here I go again, lol. I can't make up my mind about the carseat I want for my son for his dad's vehicle. I was going to use the tax money and split the cost with his dad to get a Marathon or a Boulevard, but the more I think about it, I'm not sure that's what I want to do.
His dad is living with another girl right now, who has a son that's 1 month and 1 day younger than ours. I don't want to split the cost with him to buy a carseat for her baby to use. Know what I mean? Since my son will only be with him once a week, twice at the most, he won't be using it much at all. So I'll basically be helping him pay for a carseat for her baby to ride in and that's not cool with me. If I'm helping him pay for the carseat, I don't want anyone else using it...period.
So what I was thinking is to still take out that tax money, but save it for next year, when the baby will need 2 convertible carseats (Marathon or Boulevard for my car and not sure which one for his dad's).
I was thinking maybe just get my son a Scenera for his dad's vehicle, since those, from what I've read, are good for extended rear-facing (and that's what I want). Those generally last until about age 3, right? I figured that would do the job fine for now and we could figure out the rest later.
If anyone has any other suggestions, I'd love to hear them, as I can't seem to get my thoughts straight on this one! I get completely confused and overwhelmed and just don't want to think about it, lol!
