Default DDs in BLVD70....

Here is our BLVD 70 in Cowmooflage that was made on May 10, 2011.

DD1 in the BLVD70, she is 42", 40lbs, and the harness is at the highest setting


You can almost see that the straps are still at her shoulder height. Not sure how much time she'd have left in the seat.


DD2, 12 mos., 30.75", and 20lbs.


DD2 in seat, passenger side. I tried the center and got a good install, but because of where I had to put the rear facing tether (on the back of the front passenger seat) the seat tilted towards the Frontier so I decided I liked it better on the passenger side (and moved the Frontier to behind the drivers side).


good to know that seat installs quite well here so if need be I can put it in the center to accommodate another adult; just won't be able to use the rear facing tether.

ETA: sorry the photos are so small, I guess I can't make them any bigger using flickr.

Thanks! DD1 is 5 yrs. and 2 mos. old. . She wanted me to get DD2 a pink carseat and still tells me that the cow moo seat is a boys color seat, but then she was more than willing to try the seat out, and has said she wants to sit in it in the car. Silly girl.

Isn't it true that the tether can have a bit of slack in it? I'd think that if it's pulling the seat off center it's too tight. Maybe a tech could chime in on this? Your girls look adorable in the seat. DD2 is getting so big.

Annie, this is fairly off-topic but I'm going to say it anyway: I think that Elisa's glasses are adorable - I don't think I've seen kids' frames that were so nice!

(OK, back on topic: We are big fans of the CowMoo Boulevard in our house, too. I'm not sure where the slots are on Gwen's seat, but we have to tighten her harness anyway, so maybe they're in the wrong position.)

Annie, your girls are beautiful! And I love DD1's glasses too. I agree, I haven't seen such nice kids' glasses.

They look great in the seat!
