I'm trying to get a plan of what I'm going to need in the near future for seats so I can start looking for deals. I'm going to summarize the best I can so this won't be a novel and can give more details if needed.
My kids--
J 4.5yrs, 37lbs, 39"
O 13 months, 21lbs, 27"
Other kids--
E (will be with us 5 days/week starting in Sept) 4.5yrs, 40lbs, 42" (approx)
M (comes places with us 2-3/month currently brings her NBB which means I have to rearrange seats usually to have her outboard, no center headrest) almost 9, unsure of height (still fits on top slots of FR85), 50ish lbs (she's a bean pole)
Vehicles:
'05 Santa Fe, needs to have J, O and E on regular basis and J, O and M on occasional basis
'04 Accent J and O are in rarely, once a month at most, but prefer to keep seats installed just in case
Available Seats:
RXT
CCO
2 FR85s (one currently in my mother's car)
2 MyRides (also one in my mother's car)
Scenera 40
Currently in the Santa Fe I have RXT RFing (J), FR85 center (will be for E, currently for 5.5 yr old I'm watching), CCO RFing outboard (O)
Accent has RFing MR for O and FFing Scenera for J, she is right at the top harness slot so needs to be out of this soon. I am comfortable starting to booster train her in his car when she hits 40lbs.
Plan was to hand down RXT to O when J outgrew it RFing or he outgrew CCO and put her in FR85, but I'm getting a plum cover and she is going to want to stay in it when she goes FFing! Plus that was before I knew I'd have E and need a 3 across on a regular basis so most likely O will get his own Radian.
Do I get a new combo seat for DD in the Accent? Then I can use it in booster mode for M? Do I get a dedicated booster to use for M now and then use to booster train J down the road?
Okay, that still ended up being a novel
Can you tell I'm incredibly indecisive and tend to over complicate things? PLEASE HELP!
