Hello all. My head's spinning over all of my choices! My oldest daughter has just turned 3 and is a bit small for her age (even wears some size 2 clothes) - I don't know how tall she is but she weighs about 30 lbs. She is in a Roundabout. My youngest is 8 mos and is now outgrowing her SnugRide, about 20 lbs.
Question: what car seat would you recommend? I've read all the posts about Marathon vs Radian vs Roundabout vs etc etc... I drive a Honda CRV and would really love to still have room in the backseat (in the middle) for someone to sit if need be. Do I move daughter #1 to a different seat (and which one? I'm daunted by the size of the Marathon) and give daughter #2 the Roundabout or ... I really love the Britax seats (who doesn't?) but it doesn't make sense to buy another Roundabout especially if daughter #1 will outgrow it in a year or so.
Comfort is important to me, but cost is not a factor. We hardly do any air travel now.
Would appreciate any suggestions at all. Thanks so much for your help/advice.
