Graco MetroLite Travel System —
This was the best shower gift I ever got. I registered for the Laura Ashley "Aqua Bay" pattern [now close to being dicontiuned]; because it was so perfect for either sex child. I had no idea of what a great item that I recieved. The stroller is so wonderfully small that you can take it anyway, even crouded restraunts. The carseat is very safe and comfortable for your child, and is easy as pie to install. The bad point about this system is only with the carseat itself. My son is rather large for his age [he is 7mths: 23lbs:29in] I know he's a big boy! The problem that I have run into is legally he has to be in this seat, but his feet are buckling against the back of the chair. I tried to buy another carseat to only be told that it again was illegal to have him ride front because of only his age.
Graco MetroLite Travel System is not recommended by ahaimowitz
You can buy a convertible car seat which will go both rear facing and forward facing. These are legal for infants under 12 months. Using your current seat is not safe since he is beyond the limits of the seat. Please ask if you need any help choosing a seat.
