With trips---I think you're gonna want infant seats....it will make taking them places easier. I think the Chicco Keyfit will be your best bet as the lower weight limit is 4 pounds. Also depending on where you live...it may still be cold when the babies are born and come home.(I nannied for dec trips.)

The Keyfit's install is VERY easy. Read the manuals--car and carseat a few times and you'll be SET.

The only way to really test fit and be certain is to try it out. Most BRU/TRU will let you take seats out to test out. You might have to leave your lisence---but it's worth it. The only problem you'll likely run into there is that they might not have 3 display keyfits. But if you can get 2 in side by side and then take the outside one out and try it on the other side.

For convertibles...possibly the Radian 65--but I wouldn't even really worry about them yet. You'll want to wait until you are close to needing them to make that purchase.

	Convertible Car Seats Convertible seats are for infants and toddlers. The seat can be used as a rear-facing seats for younger children, and switched to a forward-facing seat on the child's first birthday if the child weighs at least 20 pounds. However, experts recommend keeping the child in a rear-facing position until he or she outgrows the weight or height allowed by the safety seat.

	Sunshine Kids Radian 80 or 65 - Click for more info If "the Sunshine Kid's Radian 80 convertible car seat is (probably) the only car seat you will ever need," the "probably" part of this statement comes into play when you directly compare the Radian 80 with the Britax Regent. While the Radian 80 has a very high weight capacity, the seat width is only 10" vs. the Regent's 14" seat. The Britax Regent may be a bit wider, but it is very bulky, is only forward facing, and does not fold like the Radian 80. Because the Radian 80 is so narrow, you can potentially put three of them side by side in the back seat. Three Regents side by side? Impossible.
