Yesterday my sweet baby (who of course is now a thriving 5-going-on-15-year-old) used a booster seat for the first time in dad's truck. It's a high back booster but the point is that she's using the car's three point belt system instead of the oh-so-handy LATCH and 5 point harness system.
I figured it was time since, at her annual check up a couple of weeks ago, the doctor asked if she was in a booster and I said she was still in her 5 point. The doctor said, "well yes, those are safer, but I think 5 is a good age to let them out of it so they have a little more movement". So in at least one vehicle, she's in a booster. My car will be next, but I'm using the excuse of being too busy to switch the seat to keep my young one as young as I can for a few more weeks.
