I'm feeling that the e-mail joke my BIL sent about the differences between men and women is true! "A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need but it's on sale.... "
The Purple My Ride should be arriving today. Should I not even open the box and just return it? Maybe I can use it....
When I hit the buy button I was thinking
1. There will another baby (but :triggs: I had a miscarriage last week, I'm getting older and maybe there won't be another baby- but anyway I really want a coccoro for a new baby.)
2. 5.5 yo DD is jealous about 3.5 DD being rearfacing in her 45lb RF RN, so I could put big girl in the Radian she is only about 37 pounds and put little girl in the My Ride, she is 33 pounds with a 12.5 torso.
3. We usually just let the kids stay with the car and not move carseats- I would really rather not move the radians around. this my ride would give us some flexibility.
4. In the past we carpooled with DH- he refuses to have a rear facing seat behind him- he is 6'4" so ok, but now I mostly have the car to myself.
DD1 is 5.5 yo, about 44 inches tall, about 37 pounds.
DD2 is 3.5 yo, about 39 inches tall, about 33 pounds, torso 12.5 (on THIRD, not first- she was covering up the others and I didn't see them- lol slot of Radian in RF)
Current main seats: DD1 FF in a Radian 65, DD2 RF in a Radian 80SL.
Sometimes DD1 rides in a turbobooster and we have a Regent sitting in the basement- it is just so big!
Does it make any sense to keep the My Ride? without another baby we could do both girls rear facing for a while longer in the main car, put the Radian 65 FF in DH's car for little DD and turbobooster for big DD. If we do have a third baby we could do 3 across in the main car with 2 Radians and a coccoro behind driver- that shouldn't bother DH, right? Let DH take the big girls around in the other car with the Turbobooster behind driver and the My Ride RF behind passenger while I keep the baby.
does any of this make sense? I guess bottom line is would you buy a My Ride for a 3.5 year old? ...it was a good deal.... I think she will like the purple and the cup holders. Perhaps I should just dust off the Regent and use that if need be in the other car (old honda civic with top tethers added)
