Needing rear facing seats.

We are moving back to Canada in February. I now have three, three and under and need seats for them. I haven't bought or really looked at seats since Leah was a baby six years ago.
Logan will be three when we move. He is 30 pounds and 37 or so inches tall. I haven't decided yet, but he may go forward facing. He is becoming a challenge in the car and I am thinking I will turn him at three.
Eryn will be 18 months old. She is 21 pounds or so and is 29.5 inches tall.
Mallorie will be one a few weeks after we get there. She is 20 pounds and 27 inches talk. I know that the Canadian foonf rear faces to 40 pounds and the rxt goes to 45 is there a reason to get the foonf over the rxt. We have a foonf now, and I do love it, but don't know if the price difference is worth it. Tia.

You drive a current body style Ody, right?

How do you have everyone configured?

Is budget a huge concern or you're more looking for what will work best?

Yes, we have a 2013 Honda. We have a Nisan NV as well, but I am not enjoying it much and missing my Honda.
We have:
Eryn behind me in a Coccoro
Logan beside her rear facing in an RXT.
Summer behind Eryn in a basic Graco turbo booster. I haven't updated my sig in a while, she is now 70 pounds and doesn't have much growing time left in it.
Leah is forward facing in a RXT beside her. Leah is 42 inches tall and around 42-45 pounds or so.
Mallorie is in a Coccoro. It is tight, but it works.
I don't have a budget, it is whatever it is going to cost me to outfit them in their car seats.

And all 5 need new seats, correct? You have no Canadian seats at all?

You should post pics of the NV set-up. :)

Eryn: Peg Perego Convertible or Foonf (but I adore the PP Conv)
Logan: Diono RXT - either rf or ff (good seat for both or when you're in transition mode)
Leah: Britax Frontier CT
Summer: Britax Parkway SGL
Mallory: Peg Perego Convertible or Foonf


Is your Ody a 7 or 8 pass?

I know that the SGL uses the latch, but is there any other reason to get it over the SG. I like the pink cover on the SG more than the one on the SGL and knowing Summer, she is going to want pink?
It is a 8 passenger.
I am traveling with my IPad and don't have pictures of the NV on it, I will try to get some when I am home.

I agree with Canadianangies rec's I love our Peg with its rebound bar and the extra 5lbs RFing I prefer it to the foonf.

You moving back to Lloyd area?
