I have 3 girls. DD1 is 6y11m, 47lbs, and 47in. DD2 is 3y11m, 30lbs, 36in, and DD3 is 10m, and about 16lbs.
I drive an 2008 Odyssey. DD1 rides in the back passenger side in a 5 pt Nautilus bought in 2009. DD2 rides RF in the passenger side captain chair that is pushed to the middle in a BLVD 60 bought in 2010. DD3 rides in the driver side captain seat in a Keyfit 30 bought in 2012. The kids primarily ride with me, and it's our default family vehicle.
DH drives a 2005 Civic. He currently has a BLVD that expires in Dec RF for DD2 and a Complete Air (bought in July 2009) for DD1. Obviously we'll need to replace the BLVD pretty soon, and we'd ideally like him to be able to drive any 2 of the 3 kids with very minimal adjustments (definitely not uninstalling/installing seats).
I'm in no rush to FF DD2. She's still so tiny and has no complaints about RF. We didn't FF DD1 till about 4.5yrs. And I'm in no rush to put DD1 in a booster. However, I'm willing to do both/either in DH's car.
I'm more concerned about safety then money, but money is of course a factor. Advice?
