Car Seats

Jamie called me at work on Friday. The Today Show ran a story on Car Seats. I pulled this from their website: "Consumer Reports tested 12 infant car seats. Of them, 9 performed badly." "The Evenflo Discovery, which flew off its base with the dummy still strapped inside."

We have the Evenflo Discovery. One of the most dreaded times of my day is when I have to load 3 20 pound boys (which feels like 50 pounds when they're in their car seats) into the back bench seat of our van. New Years Eve I loaded them into the van 6 times (and back out 6 more times). So I think...if the seats aren't even safe, maybe I should just chuck them on the floor in the back. Will they really be that much more in danger?
