yep they woroked, My middle dd and her about the same age, abby will be 5 in just a few weeks. she's bugging me like crazy to get her a booster, she wants to get our of her "baby" seat :( well that's to bad she has about 2 - 2.5 inches left in the radain. so she'll have to stay, but she does use a turbo in our other car and i think i'll be replacing it with a parkway this summer for her...
She was in a turbo full time at the age of 3y 4m and 32#'s b/c of the turbos low limits and me not knowing better... here's her pic when i first found this boards (shortly after finding it she got a radain and loved it then) http://new.photos.yahoo.com/becca011906/album/576460762316228530/photo/294928803114749642/40

What a cutie! Yours is longer in the torso than mine, which makes the Turbo fit better. Still, as you know now, harnessed is better. ;) It does make me mad that Graco has the TB rated for such small kids. The shoulder belt clearly cuts into my dd's neck even though she is nearly 2 inches taller than the TB minimum.

Oh, my goodness, that doesn't look like a safe or good fit at all :eek:

Even the Parkway looked much better on her.

There's a 2.5 year old at DD's daycare who rides in a turbobooster! I wanted to jump out of the car when I first saw him.

Leaving Early Intervention with my 2.5 year old a few weeks back, I practically had a stroke when I saw the bus driver strapping a TWENTYFIVE POUND TWO YEAR OLD into a BACKLESS BOOSTER.

Boy did I raise hell over that :rolleyes:

heck allie's only 1 inch (and might have grown that since i measured her) to be big enough (according only to stats alone) for the turbo and parkway too. She's only 2 1/2 for goodness sakes... now wonder parents don't know what's wrong with a 2year old in a booster... i mean the manual and box says they shoudl fit.
