Car Seat Question
Tell me if I'm crazy and need to just suck it up.
I have a Britax Boulevard in my car for DD, DH has a Graco MyRide65. We can't stand the Graco. I feel like the straps never get tight enough, it's not very snug in the car and it's HUGE.
DH is getting a new car, thank you IL's for buying a new one and gifting us their 'old' one, so he'll be upgrading his car next week. We know the Britax fits like a glove in the new car, it's WAY easier to get in and out of the car, DD seems to like the Britax better. We're moving up to Evergreen, which means a lot more time in the car on a daily basis.
Am I nutts to get DH a new carseat for his new car and we'll give IL's the old one for when we visit (means we wouldn't have to fly with a car seat ever again). They are only sale (Diapers.com and Amazon). Or, should I just suck it up and deal with a car seat we can't stand in an effort to save some $$.

Growing Up Olson
I'd get the new one
The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.
I would get a new one. You can get the classic Roundabout 50 at target for a lot less than a BLVD or marathon and it is the same shell as the 2010 marathon styles.
