So I got a friend from work to listen to me tonight. She has her 4 year old in a NBB. The fit is terrible & her child is SUPER hyper & will not sit still in it. She said she is ALL the time having to get her to turn back around from facing the rear & that she just sits terrible in it. I mentioned that she should still be in a harness & she said well if you can find me one that will fit her then I will buy it. DONE! She is giving me the money to order it on Thursday. I will be ordering her the Nautilus. However she wanted the Mariposa b/c of the butterflys, but I can not find it for any less than $179.99. Can anyone help me find it for less than that. I did however find the Daisy Nautilus as Wal-Mart for $159.95 with .97 shipping. I am also having it shipped to my house & am going to show her how to properly install it.
I am just SO thrilled that I got her to put her little girl back into a harness. She said that if it will make her safer then she is all for it. Her DD will be very happy with a very pink seat & I think she will LOVE the Daisy. However my friend wanted the Mariposa. So if anyone can help me find the Mariposa for less then that would be awsome. If not then I guess it will be the Daisy!
One other thing. I fixed her DS's seat tonight. He is 2 & is in a Comfortsport. It was a TERRIBLE install. He also has about 2 inches before he outgrows it. When I checked him the straps were twisted to heck & back, the chest clip was at his belly & his straps were to loss. He was FF with the straps below his shoulders to & without the top tether clipped. So I took him out, untwisted the straps, moved them up & then reinstalled the seat with a locking clip NICE & tight & hooked the top tether. I also asked her to let me turn him back RF & she is going to think about it. He would totally still fit RF with several inches of room left, read at leat 4 inches at 2! He is TINY! I am going to show her information about WHY he should be RF when she comes over for me to show her how to install her seats. So her son is MUCH safer then he was when he left then he was when he got there.
BTW: This was all done on my lunch break while at work tonight. LOL! You know you're a nerd when you're reinstalling seats on your lunch break from work & enjoying it!!!! I just wanted her little goy to be safe & she knows that. I can not wait to play with a Nautilus though!
