I only need to buy one right now, just one. I'd love to buy more.
Kids, cars, stats:
DD 4 yr, 38#, 43"
DS 2 yr, 28#, 34"
TTC #3
my kids are all torso
I drive an 03 Grand Caravan
DH has an 02 Focus
We own:
Snugride (my kids moved to the Wizard at 10-12 weeks)
Scenara
Wizard (ds is AT the height limit RF, dd is too big, so ds rides FF in dh's car for the rare times he's with dh)
Radian 65 (dd FF in the van, I move it to the car when she goes with dh)
Radian 65 (ds RF in the van)
SO, I need a seat in the Focus for dd, I'd like both kids to have seats in both vehicles. I'd prefer ds RF but the RF Radian in the Focus is difficult at best.
My plan... I was going to keep ds in the Radian in the van, and in the Wiz in the car, and move dd's Radian to the car, and get her a Regent for the van.
Which would make 3 across in the car possible in case of an emergency I think. RN center, Wiz outboard, Snugride w/o base outboard.
But ds complains about the RN. He looks good in it, but he has a HUGE head and he needs the headwings. So I could get him a RN XT, and leave dd in the RN in both cars for now, and we'd be ok, except I'm going to want the Wiz for baby3 in a year. Which leaves me needing another seat in a year, and I was considering replacing our Snugride too.
If I get a Regent for dd, and keep her in the RN in the car, then we're all set for a while, until I need the Wiz again. Grr!
I'm not keen on switching seats as much as I do, so I really should just make dh take the van when he goes somewhere with the kids, but since they are 2 and 4, it's likely he WILL be taking them out at 3 and 5 w/o me.
So, I'm game for suggestions. Nautilus? Frontier? Something else I haven't thought of yet? I have enough seats right now to handle that emergency 3 across in the car, so that's not an issue.
Thoughts? Cost isn't a big issues as long as I'm only buying one seat at a time.
