Oh ok, the ones here attach to the seat right behind them, that's cool you found one that attaches to the window, I'd love something like that

Nice photos

. I may not have children yet, but even the German AA (car club) strongly recommends them , so when it is my time I surely take those

for those who have small cars can see there as well that it can fit nicely

By the way, sweden has a very low Accident mortality rate the lowest in Europe because they have been rear facing for 40 years

We ended up getting an Evenflo seat (the Triumph, I think). Our car is a compact and the lady at Babies r Us told me flat out after we returned the first seat that they don't carry any seats that fit the Pontiac Sunfire. Pretty stupid of them, imo. Anyway, after some searching, we finally bought the Evenflo one at Walmart- I guess around here, people with small, cheap cars have to buy their car seats at cheap stores like Walmart

Hey I bought that seat in the pics...the one my oldest is sitting in at Walmart

We had an Evenflo Triumph when Landon was little, used it for Casen for awhile too, I loved it...but it's expired now so we had to get rid of it

lol, don't get me wrong, I have a renewed appreciation of Walmart after the car seat drama

Now Babies R Us on the other hand...

Good to hear someone else has used the seat and liked it though. Emma likes having a "big girl" seat- she's tall and outgrew the infant seat way too fast!

Oh wow just noticed her age! She did outgrow it quick huh? Glad you found one she likes

The boys were so comfy in it, I loved the knobs on the side to adjust the harness

Yep, she's a weed- just the wrong mix of tall and chubby so the straps aren't long enough if she's in a thicker fluffy bum or wearing more than just a cotton knit sleeper. I love the knobs on the side too! I like the colour of your new seat though- reminds me of a race car

Beth, your boys looks so happy and handsome!
