Hello all! I am new here and already learning so much!
A little about me:
I'm Nancy (31), mom to Emma (5 1/2) and John (2). We live in Lakeland, Florida (between Tampa and Orlando). I am a stay at home mom. My husband, Rob, is a theology teacher and chaplain at an Episcopal college prep school.
I became a bit obsessed with carseats and car safety after my first husband (Emma's birth dad) was killed in a car accident. (Emma was 5 months old.) I immediately ditched the flimsy infant seat and bought 3 Roundabouts - one for me, one for my mom, one for my sister.
Now, John is in a Roundabout and Emma is in a Marathon. He is about to move up to the top strap setting. She is a little over an inch from her shoulders being at the top slot. I have been freaking out a bit about that - not sure what to get her next. (I know I want a 5 point harness.) I realize that inch or so could take quite a while, but I like to be prepared.
Anyway - thank you all so much for sharing your knowledge and information. What a wonderful resource this is!
