[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 451717, member: 1514"] The car seat thing really has me stumped now. They have just come out with the new regulations that have upped the ages and weights to where it puts Keyana back into a high backed chair for another year and takes her out of the booster seat she has been in since she was 4. That is a problem for me because I dont have her often anymore and really cant afford to buy another chair for the very few times I will have her until she reaches 6 years or 65 pounds!!! Also, I did go out and buy a new car seat for the new baby because the new regs say an infant has to be rear facing for the first 2 years or 40 pounds...can you imagine keeping a 2 year old rear facing that long???? I honestly cant. It was hard enough keeping a one year old rear facing. By the time they were almost one they were itching to turn around. Only thing I can think of is to glue a dvd player on the back seat. Or velcro so I can stick a ton of batteries in it to keep it playing. Plus this new seat is much bigger to hold a larger baby. I certainly cant put but two in my car. As far as the helmets...well...Keyana actually has a motorcycle helmet because she rides with Cory on his scooter. That is her most favorite thing in the world to do. They are so cute together going down the road. She sits right in front of him between his legs so she cant fall off and they ride all over town on his bright yellow scooter. LOL. Probably should get her knee pads but that hasnt come up. If they get hit, I dont think they will help a whole lot though. [/QUOTE]
