As most already know, I'm a car seat freak! I love them. I love using all kinds of different seats and have owned.....well way to many for 2 kids over the years. But with the addition of a new baby, I get to feed my craving for new seats once again!
I already have the infant seat picked out and will order it in April. The seat we had for the boys expired in 2010. I chose the OnBoard 35 Air for several reasons. It is rated down to 4lbs, was designed by a NICU nurse with preemies in mind, it has wonderful customizable infant inserts, the most leg room of any infant seat, the tallest shell of any infant seat, and is also narrow through the base of the seat. So it will be great if we are bringing home a 4lber - like Little Miss A - or (fingers crossed) a 6-7lber term baby!
We do have one problem however. Mark's Camry - a somewhat small back seat. My plan was to get the baby a Radian convertible seat once the infant seat was outgrown - since all our current convertible seats will be expired by then. The Radian is the slimmest convertible seat on the market. So hopefully I can get 3 car seats across the back of Mark's Camry if I change the Frontier that Luke currently rides in to a Radian.
Of course Mark just rolls his eyes on the prospect of even more car seats in our house! But I did tell him that new car seats are cheaper than a new vehicle!
