I would give him your second. If for what ever reason you need his car you can always just switch it out of your car. I never had 2 carseats, I would just switch.
I also wanted to say that is so great that your dad wants to do this. That is so special and your dad is going to love that time. Sometimes I wish my parents were retired to spend more time with the kids besides on a weekend when nobody is busy Chat Icon .

My ILs had one because FIL works close to Lucas' daycare but they gave us that one for now while we figure out what to do..this way each car has one. We have to buy another one so we can give them back theirs. It has been very helpful for them to have one.

Re: Do your parents have a carseat in their car?

My parents are in Staten Island so they don't need one actually in their car all the time. We see them every weekend. We share the second car seat we bought between DH's car and my parent's car.

My parents bought their own seat that they had installed so that they can take her out when they babysit.

Re: Do your parents have a carseat in their car?

My MIL has one in her car for Julia since she watches her more for me, my parents just take mine if they need to bring Julia to there house, and we will just take it back when we pick her up.

My IL's and parents hardly ever take the kids in there car right now, I'm sure when there older the carseats will be used more.

Re: Do your parents have a carseat in their car?

My dad watches Lily during the week, so we bought him a carseat for his car.
My MIL just started watching Lily on Tuesdays, and she was so excited - she went out and bought a new carseat, a new stroller, a pool for their yard....
So yeah, everyone has a carseat for this spoiled little girl! Chat Icon

Re: Do your parents have a carseat in their car?

None of the grandparents have carseats in their car. I know for my nieces and nephews they will just borrow the carseats or trade cars for the day. I would just take James' carseat and let your dad show him off!!

Re: Do your parents have a carseat in their car?

My mom has her own b/c she watches DS a lot. We have an extra one for DHs car but he has a Mustang which isn't very kid friendlyChat Icon so he only puts it in there if he needs to. My dad lives in Florida for the winter so he leaves his car at my house in case we need to borrow it so that's where the second carseat is most of the time.

I'm the oddball because we don't really want anyone driving DD around (especially not my mom) on a regular basis. I'm just not comfortable with the idea.

Re: Do your parents have a carseat in their car?

We got one for both sets of parents. We bought a cheaper one from Walmart. We also used this seat when we travel (fly).

Re: Do your parents have a carseat in their car?

We just got an extra one to put in my Mom's car. This way, Charlie and I can take walk on the ferry from CT and she can pick us up. It will save us a lot of $$$.

Re: Do your parents have a carseat in their car?

we had the infant seat with 2 bases and we started using the britax 2 months ago.

Both my parents have a base in each of their cars since she still fits in the infant seat and they use that.
