Mine is born at the end of September so he's a little older - he walks probably 50% of the time. His older brother walked early (took his first steps right before 10 months and was independently walking by 11 months) and A has been slightly ahead of big brother. Big brother took longer to talk than his peers so I'm sure that it will even out later on.
And I just realized this morning that he has likely outgrown his infant car seat - his head is around 2 inches from the top which is when they outgrow it - so I need to get a convertible for him. I'm sad that he is growing up so fast!
I really need to get a convertible seat as well. Does anyone have recommendations to ones they really like? We have a britax for the infant seat, and have considered that for the convertible as well. I would like something that can fit in a smaller vehicle.
We love our Chico next fit - bought one for each car for our older son. We have a Britax Blvd too and we hate it. We both find it difficult to do the straps.

Good to know. I was looking at both last night and feel like I'm leaning towards the Chico next fit.
jellykat2, it really depends on the car that the seat will go into and how tall your LO is and whether you want to rear face them for an extended time period. The facebook group car seat for the littles is super useful - if you give them some details they will recommend seats for your specific situation.
In my case, I really wanted to keep my kids rear facing for as long as possible because it's just a lot safer than forward facing them. DS1 is almost three and is still rear facing in his convertible. For extended rear facing, the Diono seats and the Chicco Nextfit have the highest rear facing height limits. I picked the Nextfit because I liked the ease of installation and it actually fit in the backseat of my husband's Lexus facing backwards (he drives an IS which is a sports car with a tiny backseat). We went to Buy Buy Baby and were able to take the seats out of the store and try them out in his car. The Nextfit is super expensive but I was able to get it on sale at Target for around $200.
I do want to keep dd rear facing as soon as possible. I didn't know BBB would let you do that. We may treck out there to try some out. I wonder if BRU does the same thing?
jellykat2, I've heard that BRU will do it if you leave your driver's license with them. Good luck!

Yeah our 2.5 yr old is still very comfortably RF and he's a big kid. Very happy with the seat.
