Thanks Kelly, I didn't realize Regent didn't RF, duh. I want to keep DD RF too, so I am off to buy the Marathon. :)

I was going to get a Marathon for DS. But he is growing so fast. He is already 24" long and 12 pounds.

So I am wondering if I should get a Regent for him instead? I would hate to not have him protected for as long as possible, because of the price of the Britax seats. There is a $219 deal for Marathons right now at travelingtikes.com and I am very tempted just to go that route and worry about later, well, later.

What do you think?

Well, if he's big, he'll outgrow his carrier far before a year, so you'll need a convertible to keep in rear-facing - so a Regent is out as its FF only. :) Unless your DD can use it and DS gets her convertible?

Really, at this point who can say how big or small a kid will end up? My nephew was a MOOSE. Off the charts for height and weight until 9-10 months, now at a year he's 50%/50% since he's been mobile.

A MA is a good choice. With two kids you can always shuffle things around as they get older.
