I think this is my first time posting here. I have three kids and need to fit them across the middle seat of my SUV. It's a pretty small backseat, but I currently have an 8yo in a Graco Turbobooster on the passanger side, a 5.5yo in a Radian80 in the middle, and my 15-month old in a RF Britax Roundabout behind the driver seat. This combo works well, but my Roundabout is six years old this month so I need to replace it.
I'm considering either getting a Radian65 to put rearfacing in the middle (it's too tall to fit behind the driver), putting the Radian80 behind the driver seat and keeping the turbobooster where it is, BUT I think it will be a real pain to get the baby into the middle seat with a seat on either side. Or, what I'm leaning towards doing is getting another Roundabout. My baby is tiny (19-lbs, 30" and all legs) so I think she'll be able to be in the Roundabout rearfacing until about 3yo before she outgrows it by height. At that point my 5.5yo will be 7yo and possibly ready for a booster (she's not ready now). My oldest will be 10yo, but likely still needing to be in a booster since she's also petite and unlikely to be 4'10" at 10yo. What I don't want to have happen is to buy a Roundabout now and then still need to buy a 2nd Radian in a year or two. I'm open to any other combo that would work, but keep in mind I have a Britax Wizard that won't puzzle nicely with our Radian so I'm guessing any of the larger Britax seats won't work RF next to the Radian in my car.
TIA for any advice!!
