DD will be 6 in april. She currently weighs about 50 lbs and is riding in a regent in my 06 town and country. Within the next year she will most likely getting a booster. DS just turned 3 and weighs 40 lbs. :eek: He is half her age and only weighs 10 lbs less than her. Whats going on. :shrug-shoulders: DS rides in a Marathon. He is much bulkier than dd and much taller than she was at that age. So i don't think he will fit in it as long as dd. Once dd gets her booster. What should i do with the regent. Its a girly one so if i use it for ds i am going to have to find another cover. Because its a girly one and ds will have nothing to do with that. Should i keep it for ds who is my crazy, active non listening child. I also have a radian in the mix. Although my crazy boy hates it. He only likes his MA. The regent has at least 3 years left maybe more. Radian is only 1 - 1.5 years old.

Just wondering when your dc really outgrew the MA,and radian

Piper outgrew a Radian around 6.5, a Marathon about a half year before.

I'd get her a booster and a new cover and give him the Regent.

I agree with Wendy about getting a new over and keeping the Regent. Just be sure to keep the expiration of the Regent in mind.

Benjamin is 6 1/2 and outgrew the MA last March and his shoulders are right at the top slots on the radian now. I have moved him to the monterey in my van but he still uses the radian sometimes in dh's car. It is handy that I can have it installed there FF and he or Elizabeth can both use it.

I would buy a new regent cover or trade covers with someone.
