I haven't really introduced myself- I'm Laura and I have two kiddos- Ellie and Greg.
Ellie is almost 27 mo, and weighs in at about 20 lbs, give or take, so legally she HAS to sit rear facing, correct?
Currently she is in a Britax Marathon, which is our back-up seat, because our Recaro harness adjuster broke. :thumbsdown:
I just ordered her a My Ride, though, so she will be in that as soon as it comes! I am actually glad that we were able to replace the seat, since I HATE the Recaro RF. My nieces are in them FF, and I LOVED the seats and installation, so I got one for DD. She is somewhat long-torsoed, but as tiny as she is, I don't think that her height will be an issue for fitting in any seat!
So, does anyone else have such a small LO? I have been asked by family recently why we ERF Ellie, since she is TWO now, but I have been telling them that the law is over one AND over 20 lbs. (which she technically is, but she is so close I still just play that card)
My DS is in a more "average" growth curve- he is 13 lbs at 5 mo, and in a Chicco KF30. I will probably put him in a convertible seat when he is around 1 or so, like I did Ellie- once I stop taking the bucket out of the car, I just don't really like the seat so much anymore.
Ok, so that turned out longer than I thought, but just a quick intro to my kiddos!
