? about DDs fit in her TF (with pics)

I feel like DD is approaching that awkward stage in her TF when the bottom slots are seeming a little low but the second slots arent even with her shoulders yet. I took some pics to compare. Opinions? I didnt take her out to resettle her after moving the straps up, maybe I should have? I used to think she was really long torsoed but it seems like her legs have really sprouted lately. She just turned 1 and weighs 23 lbs 14oz, and is 31" long. Does that mean I get to call her ERF now? :D

Unless the straps are slipping off her shoulders in the lower position, leave them be. If they are slipping off, move them up.

I definitely wouldn't call her tall-torsoed!

She really did used to be though! As a noob she was allmost popping the snaps out of 3 month sized onsies, never squeezed her into any actual newborn cloths at all. But now she can still wear some onsies she was filling out at 2-3 months old. Crazy girl :p

It looks to me like she's not all that far above the bottom slots, and not really close to the second slots.

She's over the minimum age and weight for FFing in her current seat (is there a height minimum? I don't even know), so yes, therefore I say she's officially ERFing. :)

Yeah, I was thinking it's a little far still.... The straps arent really slippy yet. My main issue is other people (DH and grandma) trying to put her in the seat. I dont loosen it every time I bc it's such a pain. So you have to kind of settle her in to get her buckled. And so when anyone else trys to put her in the seat they swear up and down that the straps are too tight and it's impossible :rolleyes: But its really not a huge issue bc she doesnt go anywhere without me yet. Definately not worth moving her up a slot too soon. Thanks for looking :)

And I looked in the manual and it just says 1 year and 23 lbs, nothing about height to FF, so I guess she is ERFing :love:
