Okay. Here is my dilemna that I need some help with. Bryce is 26 months old weighs 34 lbs and is 38" tall. He has (2) Britax Roundabouts (one for home and one for daycare provider) that he has used since he was 5 months old.
We recently returned from a weeks vacation and purchased a 2004 Honda Pilot. He has no problem going to the babysitters in the morning, but he wants NOTHING to do with his carseat on the ride home. The most frustrating thing is he has no problem going into the same carseat in her car (Nissan Pathfinder). I don't know if it's the carseat or the new car.
I am looking at purchasing another carseat or booster for "daddy's" car (2000 Honda Accord). At this point, I don't know whether to put his Roundabout back into the Accord until he outgrows it and purchase something new for the Pilot.
I tried to get him to sit in some boosters and test them out at BRU on Monday, but he wanted nothing to do with any of them. At this point, he is just going to have to deal with it because there is no option -- he MUST be in a carseat.
What do you think about the Graco Ultra CarGo, Britax Marathon, or Britax Wizard? Should I spend the extra $ on the Britax or should I change him to a combo seat and use belt positioning booster at 3 yrs old? What is the difference between the Marathon and Wizard?
