Question for anyone who has three car seats in a row

We where able to fit three car seats in a row in out SUV. We had to buy two Radian Dion car seats and a Graco infant.

What order do you have or had the car seats. Wondering where to put the infant seat. Right now we have the infant in the middle. I know its the safest but I need to no more what is going to be the easiest for me to get them in and out. Also not sure if the 2 year old should be next to the baby. THinking maybe I should move the convertible seats next to each other and put my 5 year old next to the infant.

Any suggestions?

We had the infant seat behind the passenger seat, my 3yr old in the Radiant in the middle forward facing and my DD in a graco turbo booster behind the driver seat. That is what worked best.

Now that DS is out of the infant carrier we have him in the Radiant rear facing behind the passenger seat, my 4yr old in a Radiant forward facing in the middle, and my 6yr old in the tubro booster behind the driver seat.

The Radiant in my car didn't work well in the middle rear facing because it is so long. On the passenger side only that front seat has to be pulled up instead of both seats if it were in the middle.

Okay so maybe we will move the one seat to the middle and the infant behind the passenger. Other seats are forward facing so don't have that problem. Can't wait to get a bigger SUV. We are stick in a lease for at least 8 more months so we had to make this work for now. I was worried about my 2 year old next to infant seat anyway. Think my older guy needs to be in the middle. My 2 year old is a gentle guy but scared he might throw something by accudent
