I would appreciate some advice on the type(s) of carseat(s) I might consider buying for him at this stage. He is nearly 3' tall and though slim has outgrown his Peterson carseat (the one that is supposed to take the kid from infant through toddler). Hence I have one of two options; 1. buy him a booster seat 2. buy him a larger carseat Personally, I would prefer the latter option as I like the side, back and front protection he would get with the larger carseat. However, the kid is growing like a weed (he wears a size 8 1/2 shoes) and I may have to buy the booster seat in a year's time anyway. I'd welcome any suggestions from fellow parents as to which option might be better, and what make booster or carseat I should get. However, please send mail and if other readers are interested, I will summarize and post. Thanks in advance, Jennifer Lee Electronic mail to: ucbvax!unmvax!nmtvax!jennifer
