Abby has finally outgrown her Peg Perego Infant Car Seat. After much research and trying out car seats in our Nissan Maxima at Great Beginnings, we decided on purchasing the Britax Marathon. This seat will last until Abigail reaches 65 lbs or 49 inches tall. We guess that's around age 5 or 6.
We found that TravelTikes.com had the best price for the Marathons at $219.99. (The NEX catalog had the next best price at $249.99.) We just ordered the Ashley Floral print. I can not believe Paul was ok with me buying a floral print. Even more surprising, I can not believe I love a floral print so much!!
It's very girly, but since Abby will be in it for so long, we will probably have to buy a different seat for a second child anyway, so we didn't worry about getting something gender-neutral.
Update: The Ashley Floral has been discontinued and replaced with the Mariposa fabric. TravelTikes called and they are willing to honor the sale price, otherwise the Mariposa would cost $279! Below is a picture of the Mariposa. Butterflies instead of the flowers. I would have preferred a little more red, but I still like it a lot.
