i saw a cool...yes, bonniebee... no more facebook. <br />i saw a cool solution for a smaller booster seat. it looked like a big woopie cushion. it was an inflatable, very transportable booster. it came out last year. i didn't check the prices on it though. it was only about a foot wide (compared to the 14-16in. of the others).MamaThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10253228401557118155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140158725653920035.post-87873912797311406152012-05-09T08:15:38.732-06:002012-05-09T08:15:38.732-06:00We are dealing with the same issue. The problem is...We are dealing with the same issue. The problem is they are supposed to be rear facing until 2 here and its such a mess. California is trying to make kids stay rear facing until some crazy age like 4 or 5 which is just ridiculous!!<br /> <br />We are getting a mini van. We only have 3 so that helps. Those car seats are very expensive. I know the fit though:) Sometimes the government makes no sense in the fact they want us to drive more "energy efficent" cars, but we have to keep kids in car seats until they are graduated it seems. Sadly it does not work! Good luck and let me know if you come up with a cheaper solution:)Alexishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06426247090086539036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140158725653920035.post-82993951699658486082012-05-07T19:39:22.942-06:002012-05-07T19:39:22.942-06:00no more facebook mamat?no more facebook mamat?bonniebeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10882454252898004904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140158725653920035.post-81885533055372142912012-05-06T13:39:59.812-06:002012-05-06T13:39:59.812-06:00a couple years ago we remedied our bicycle situati...a couple years ago we remedied our bicycle situation to accomidate our large family, but we can't fit the kids AND the groceries, so we just ride for recreation and still drive most everywhere. <br /><br />maybe when we buy a home we will consider hoofin' it more often and park our home more conveniently. my favorite home we've found so far was parked VERY conveniently for such an occasion... but it already sold and it didn't sell to me. :(MamaThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10253228401557118155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140158725653920035.post-47130967171262405982012-05-06T13:35:19.723-06:002012-05-06T13:35:19.723-06:00follow through troy. follow through!

(re: your child seat idea) that would easily make our 7-passenger van fit our 8-passenger family!<br />i read the article about the suggestions for the upping ages of car seat using too. it was just suggestions though... for maximum safety. i thought it proposterous! i also read several comments and apparently it makes me a very irresponsible parent to thing such suggestions are proposterous. a 2-year-old seated backwards though?! seriously?! where exactly do they put their feet and legs???? i have short-legged kids and even at 1-year-old they run out of room! a commentor suggested that it's so much better that they don't drop toys and such when they're faced backward, but if you're going for safety, you shouldn't have loose toys in the car because in case of a crash those loose objects act like bullets flying around inside the vehicle!<br />:)MamaThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10253228401557118155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140158725653920035.post-57446923147209838912012-05-06T06:54:44.876-06:002012-05-06T06:54:44.876-06:00Whatever happened to my invention idea about havin...Whatever happened to my invention idea about having a car seat that takes up two regular seats but seats three tots?<br /><br />I saw that new regulations are suggesting kids seat backward facing until 2 or something.<br /><br />I have a suggestion for car/kid safety. To the world, mamat, and not you specifically, but how about more kids (and adults) on foot and less time in the car at lethal speeds!<br /><br />PS from Troy not Bonniebonniebeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10882454252898004904noreply@blogger.com
