A vent: A who goes where frustration.

I have all intentions of putting the older boys in the fr85s in the captains chairs and my three littles all rf in the third row.

A ca 65lx, Cco and ca 50lx will not all fit rf in the third row. I need about a half an inch more room that I just can't squeeze because of the funky bump on the ca 65lx. Grr. So I think no matter what I do I'm going to have to bust out the radian. I'm going to try s2 in the Cco today and see how she fits because I might be able to do rf ca, rf Cco, rf keyfit or some combination.

I know I did a combo in the third row of ca(50), radian, ca 50lx all rf so I don't quite understand why the Cco won't fit in the middle between the two.

Just wanted to vent since I knew you ladies (and gents) would understand.

sounds like all you seattle/washington peeps need a big meetup

I'm wondering if having the regular (NOT LX) version of the CAs would change how it meshes.

It looks like it's hitting the edge of the headwing, so I don't think it's going to work. :( I did however remeasure Stella today and I could get another CCO and put stella in one and put landon in one :whistle:

Enter mantra... I do not need another seat... I do not need another seat.

or (and while this would still necessitate another seat, it's a less expensive one, at least) you could get an onside air/scenera 40... no wing issues... coccoro on one side, the new seat on the other, and the CA in the middle.

I was just thinking of this as well. I have a scenera 40 that's out on loan right now, but it doesn't work well in the third row (the shoulder part of the belt pulls the whole seat up), and I'd rather not use a locking clip if possible.

IIRC you can get an onside air on sale for about the same price as the scenera, correct? I do have a SS1 that's got less than a year left on it that I could trade in at BRU, for 25% off. I found a CCO for $130 brand new, so that's not too bad.

I'm going to double check tonight, but I might be able to do CA, RN, CCO and if that works then I wouldn't need to purchase a new seat, I would be able to work with what I've got, which would be the best option.

I don't know if the onside air would have the same issue as the scenera or not... but it's always worth a shot.

I finally saw one in person the other day at walmart (totally without camera, without tape measure, AND AF was being murder... it was why I was there, to buy more pads) when I decided I couldn't go there and not go ahead and pick up Damian's new underwear and Ruthie's ponytail holders... cause one is near the other... then both were near the seats... so I made an excuse to go look.

I think next weekend, I'm gonna go back, though, to get Ruthie a new pair of play shoes (she just outgrew her sneakers and play shoes... I had sneakers waiting)... and take some comparison shots (will have to take tape measure)

because it looked deeper... and better padded...

I was looking for the harmony cruz, which walmart.com SAID was in stock there, but there were NONE :thumbsdown:

I tried amare in an onside air a couple weeks ago. He had more room than in the scenera id say around 3-4 inches for growth. Stella is tiny though and she could probably rf in it for a while.

It's amazing though. A is 10 days older than s2 and he's huge compared to her. 4 inches overall taller 3 in torso alone.
