So I'm going crazy (yet again). DS is 2.5, and I keep getting crazy measurements for his torso. He's a sloucher, so sometimes I get 12 inches, but just now I got 14. He's 1/2 inch below the 3rd slot on his TF. Anyways, I bought a TF not even 4 months ago. But now I'm wondering if I want a seat that RF tethers like an XT or MA. DS has been hovering at 29lbs for a while now, and who knows how long until he gets to 35. So here are my options:

1- nothing. Suck it up, keep the TF, and no RF tethering
2- buy a used MA or RN from swap
3- buy a new MA or XT and sell the TF
4- Sell the GN we use for Gma's car, put the TF in, and buy an XT or MA

Wwyd? I'm going crazy.

I'd just use the TF. I have no problems using it for Sofi. I like it better than the RF tethereed seats becaue it offers more legroom than the MA/BV and it insalls tighter in my van than the RN (unfortunately we have a space issue and BabyS has been moved to the TF and Sofi the RN so she can stay center).

I'd just stick with the TF. Ds used a rf'ing radian while we were gone last week and *gasp* I didn't even consider rf tethering it. In fact I am doubtful I would tether a rf'ing seat that allowed it either - if that helps make your decision any easier. :thumbsup:

Ok so I'll stick with the TF. (That was really hard to write.. I really love the rio XT)

Now what will I do with my $130 store credit at USA baby? Lol I'm returning my inglesina swift but I lost the receipt :hitselfonhead: and I'm praying they'll take it back.. I mean I only used it once.. :whistle: and I hate how it steers.. ARG.:thumbsdown:

Time to go look at different strollers.... :scratcheshead: even though DS pretty much hates them....
