Noah is just about to outgrow his SnugRide. We decided to give him Elijah's RA and to buy Eli a new seat, one of the ones that converts from a FF seat to a booster so we don't have to buy him another one. Yesterday we went to Target and bought him the Graco Platinum CarGo. We are going to visit a local police station with a carseat installation expert to have both seats correctly installed (RA will be RF).
Why do I feel guilty for not buying another Britax? For us it is very much a financial issue. The larger Britax seats are considerably more expensive. And even though Eli is only 26 lbs or so, we can't keep him RF (and had to turn him when Noah was born) because we can't fit a seat RF behind the driver's seat since DH is the primary driver. And frankly, having a narrow seat like the CG is much more appealing since it allows someone else to sit in the back seat with the two carseats, something that might not be possible with the larger Britax seats.
So why do I feel like I'm talking myself into feeling like I made a good, safe decision?
