Our son will be 4 years old this spring, and we are in the process of adopting twins. They should be home in a couple months, around age 10 months. We have a 2007 Honda Odyssey, and I'm still debating where I'm going to install the 3 car seats.
Our 3-year-old is in a Britax Regent. Then we have 2 Graco SafeSeats for the babies. First question... has anyone had a successful installation of either of these seats using a seat belt in the 3rd row (not LATCH) in an Odyssey??
Here are the 2 plans I'm thinking of:
1. The 2 babies in the captain's chairs (2nd row), with the aisle down the middle. Then our 3-year-old in the middle of the 3rd row with LATCH. I am concerned though that it will be tricky to get around the babies to buckle up my son in the 3rd row. But it will probably be nice that big brother will be able to see the babies from his seat, whereas we won't be able to from the front.
2. Remove one captain's chair and put 2 kids in the 3rd row and one baby in the 2nd row. Then there's a big floor space to be able to maneuver in there. But one car seat in the 3rd row would need to be installed with a seat belt instead of LATCH. That is my concern.
Thanks for any help!!!
