Eva has asked to go back into a 5 point harness. She got "too tall" for her Marathon (shoulders above top slots) last summer and has been in the Parkway since. The problem is, she doesn't always sit properly.
She weighs 55 lb. I just rechecked her in the Marathon. Her ears are about an inch below the top of the seat back, but her shoulders (which measure right at 17.5" up against the wall) are definitely above the top slots. Would you put her back in the Marathon? (It doesn't expire until September.)
From page 30 of the MA manual:

From page 30 of the MA manual:
IMPORTANT: Once the top slots become necessary, the child may continue to use the restraint until the top of the ears become level with the top of the restraint shell or child’s weight exceeds 65 pounds (29.5 kg).
