Help Please.
My Radian broke. I go into the details on another thread but it was a harness adjustment issue and then I fell and accidentally cracked the seat.
I would prefer to do a 3 across - if I don't DS #1 has to ride in the back of my Rondo - loading him through the hatch, he would sit with the stroller, dogs and back packs -- not ideal!
My boys stats are -
7 years, about 44 inches, 50 pounds, riding in a Cosco HBB
(He is lean and narrow and full of muscle.)
6 Years, about 42 inches, just barely 40 pounds, riding in a generations
(He has been in a booster when he went over the 40 pound mark but has since lost weight and does prefer a harness. There is nothing to this boy!)
12 weeks, about 25 inches, 14 pounds, riding RF in a Radian or Snugride with no base.
(He is a solid baby - long thick torso, tiny inseam. AND is cloth diapered in some very fluffy bums when we go out for a long time.)
We drive a Kia Rondo. (We also have a truck which gives us a lot more room across but we don't have winter tires on the truck.)
SO if I am not going to use the Radian - I NEED other options for the smallest boosters, or HWH or Convertable seats out there. I would be ok doing 2 boosters if a HWH won't work.
I know that I can't do -- the snugride without base with the generations -- that doesn't leave enough room for a booster.
I also know for sure that I can't use a truefit RF. I have one in the truck and it won't instal in the Rondo -- can't close the lock offs.
Any suggestions are appreciated. Buying a bigger car IS an option but probably not for a couple months. Our Rondo is perfect for a family of 4 with two forward facing kids -- not so good when you add another baby. Laughable really when you consider we are TTC #4 soon.
