to start, this is how she still fits in her Vivo, which we love (I sadly don't have a shot that shows growroom... but she has about 2" less than the probooster
I put her in the same Dress today (but that pic was taken this month) to show the difference in fit... the Probooster is definitely deeper, which is okay right now, but I'm sure will be a good thing later on (right now, she's getting used to having to scoot her bum back further)... her knees are right at the edge and bend nicely... she says it's comfy and she doesn't try to pull her feet up to rest on the vehicle seat (not that she could), but she also doesn't try to prop her feet on my seat (I put her behind me for today, so I could feel if she put her feet up for comfort)
to fit without a gap in my vehicle seat, I needed the recline bar in the down position... once I did that, it fit perfectly... no tipping, no rocking, nothing... my van is an 05 caravan and it fits in the captain's chair like it was made to go there... and the Misty morning helps it blend nicely. (Jeffrey asked me AGAIN when I first put it in if he could use it... poor guy...) In the house, her head was completely below the word "RECARO", so she definitely lost some grow room, but that's typical with my van.... Jeffrey has less than no grow room... he couldn't sit all the way in the seat, so I didn't bother taking a pick.
Here is the growroom Ruthie has.... and being now in the 45% for height, even with her long torso, she should have a good long time in it
she was on number 5 or 6 for the setting, so she has about half of them to go.
and, not to leave him out... Jeffrey was so happy when (because it was so ungodly hot in his dad's car and he didn't want to do it himself), I pulled his combi dakota out and put it back in my car (I put the harmony back in there)
