Hi! I'm Kelly. i've got a 3 yr old and a 5 yr old and am currently not thrilled with either of their seats but am waiting a bit to get new ones. 3 yr old is in the Cosco Ventura and my 5 yr old is in a Cosco Protek. I want the 5 yr old in either the new Apex or in a Britax booster (the husky is too wide for my car). I want the 3 yr old in anything other than this one, just because we've had it for over 3 yrs and I'm sick of it and its not that great a seat. For her, I'm waiting until Graco and Evenflo come out with their seats with harnesses up to 65 lbs. She learned to unbuckle this one a few months ago, and I had to flip the buckle around - she can't reach it right with the release thing facing inward.
My dh calls me a carseat Nazi. I''m pretty anal about them. I was planning to go to a CPS tech training class this week, but I coudlnt' make it. My dh is deployed, the class I was going to go to is in Atlanta and my family is in the area, so I was going to travel and leave the kids with family and friends while I did the class - but we just don't have the funds for travel this week. And there's a class, I think in 2 weeks, but its over an hour away from me here and I don't have childcare. So, I'm reluctantly putting it off.
