(It was my nephews before that). Convertible- every time she vomits all over it, so thank god, just once! I won't let her eat messy things like bananas in it. zhough so it's mostly dry crumbs caked on. mrsbubbletea on "How often do you clean the car seat cover?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-clean-the-car-seat-cover#post-2639885 Thu, 20 Oct 2016 18:26:15 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2639885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I am gross, that's all I am gonna say about that.
