    In light of the disappearance of the Kiddy Cruiser 3...

    I'm feeling a bit optionless. DD turned 5 in Jan. was going to start training this summer. These are the original boosters recommended: "Ok. In that case you may like the Cybex Solution X-fix, M-fix or Q2-fix, all of which are "huggy" and which have a reclining headrest for sleep; the Kiddy...

    Convertible or combination?

    DD turns 4 in Jan. She is small, and will easily fit in her convertibles until she's old enough for a booster. We plan to turn her at 4, because although she'd still be able to rf she is itching to turn around. While I'm not planing on replacing all her seats, because she rides regularly in 5...

    Flying Solo with my 3 year old

    I'm thinking of flying to Florida in April with my 3 year old dd. She will be 3 years 3 months at the time. She is still rf in all of our cars. Last time I flew with her I used our Marathon G3 and getting it on the plane was a total PIA. They wouldn't let me board early, so I had to hoist it...

    How Do I properly dispose of a carseat?

    As some of you may have read in other threads we were recently in an accident and our Pria 70 is no longer good as per the manual. I have replaced the seat, but I upgraded to an 85. This leads to 2 questions: 1. How do I properly dispose of the Pria 70. It looks perfectly fine so I don't...
