After months (well years if you consider I wanted one of these seats for Delainey when she was first born) whining and saving we have finally gotten all three of the girls the car seats that I wanted to get them. Chad's brother and sister-in-law having them really helped to convince Chad that I wasn't just a dork HA!. Now we only have to wait until June (or maybe later) until the Britax Regent is available again so that we can order one of those for Delainey for the van. It is the ONLY 5 point car seat that works for a child up to 80 lbs. To us 5 point harness car seats are so very important. In the past year we have known of two families effected by poor car seats. One their infant son's car seat (the one with the base) flew out of the car upon roll over and the little boy later passed away, and then another family lost their 4 year old when he flew out of his car seat (a booster) that was buckeled into the middle seat of his grandmother's car, went through the window and died instantly upon hitting his head on a tree.
Car seat safety is so important. There is s statisic about how like 8 out of 10 car seats are improperly placed into cars. Please make certain that you go to the car seat check ups when you can.
Ok.. off my soap box now :)
