I want to get 2 new seats for dh's car. The kids are only in his car in emergencies. Or special circumstances. Like when my uncle passed away, and i took ds to the funeral with me. Since he was only 6 months old, and dh took dd with him to his mothers house, and did some stuff. Other than that, and one other time which i forget the reason, i believe it was another funeral. If dh has the kids alone and takes them out (which also never happens) he uses my car and i use his. Currently we have a safeseat for ds that he used to use, that i believe he no longer fits in. And an eddie bauer 3-1 that has about 4 months left on it. My kids stats are ds is 19 months 27 lbs and 35 inches forward facing due to severe car-sickness. We keep trying to turn him around to no avail. But for this car i think i am going to stick to the forward facing even if he gets better only because of the low chances that he will actually use that carseat also. And because the car is a 2 door mustang a forward facing seat will fit much better in it. He is tall and i tried him in the scenera and he really did not have alot of room left in that seat. DDs stats are 4 years 4 months 37 lbs and 40 inches. Although we are hoping after her heart surgery she puts on some weight. I don't want to spend alot of money but i was thinking for ds i was thinking of getting him a nautilus, and picking up a cheaper high back booster for dd. I hate to do this as i would love to keep her harnessed long. But like i mentioned this is for emergencies only. And in an emergency if dh has the nautilus in his car and has to pick up dd from school and i have ds with me, he can put her in that. It would be only in severe emergency. This along the lines, like i am out alone with the van and in a car accident or something he has something to put them both in. What would you do?
