July 2014 marks 6 full years of CarseatBlog.com! Can you believe it?!? In some ways it seems like not so long ago that we began blogging about carseats, child passenger safety and vehicle safety. And in some other ways it feels like we’ve been doing this forever… Lol!
Along the way we’ve shared some laughs (R.I.P. Marvin), made some great friends, and oh, yes – reviewed a carseat or two.
Whether you’re new to CarseatBlog.com or have been with us since the start in 2008 – we’d like to share our celebration with you. You are the reason we’re still here 6 years later, still blogging away, always looking for ways to improve our content and better serve our readers. (Technically we started in 2007 but didn’t begin blogging regularly until July 2008 when we moved to our own server).
The field of Child Passenger Safety is just starting to heat up and take off, and we have a lot of great things planned for the near future here at CarseatBlog. We can’t wait to see all the awesome advances in safety, technology and innovation that the next 6 years is going to bring us. We hope you stick around and enjoy the ride with us!
During the next 6 weeks we’re going to be celebrating by giving away some great carseats so stay tuned! Please spread the word about CarseatBlog and our giveaways to friends, family and share on your social networks! So a big “Thank You” for visiting, from Kecia, Heather, Jennie, Alicia, Darren and all of our guest bloggers at CarseatBlog!
To kickoff our Blogiversary Celebration we’ve partnered with our generous sponsor, Graco, to offer one brand new 4Ever All-in-1 (rear-facing, forward-facing, booster seat).

For a proper fit, the Simply Safe Adjust™ Harness System and 10-position headrest lets you adjust the harness and headrest together, with no rethreading.

I love that you can use it for ten years; first rear-facing, then forward-facing, and finally as a booster seat.
I love how long lasting it will be and its compactness.
Thanks for all the time you take to blog about seats! It really helps us see the pros and cons of each of them! I love the piping on this seat and would love to put my September baby in this!
I love how long-lasting it is and that it has a 10 year life span. Sounds awesome!
This will be perfect for my lil girl and random kids that ride in my van!
I am in love with my graco click-connect 40 infant seat, but my daughter will soon be needing a convertible seat. She would love this, and I love that it is designed to fit the tiny people as well as the big!
Awesome!
This seat is so rad!
I love that this seat can be used for all phases of carseat use!
I love how versatile it is!! My 2 year old DD would be able to RF to 4 at least in this seat!
Would love this for our new addition.
I love that it converts and can be used from day 1 until they are done with a booster!
Always looking for the best carseats for my grandchildren. Want nothing but the best in safety and comfort.
It would be amazing to win this! This car seat looks fantastic!
