We turned Aidan when he was one (and close to 30 pounds). Owen is still rear-facing and will be for anotehr 10 pounds.

Yay!! Glad to hear Owen is still RF!

At the rate Daniel's going, he may well still be rear-facing when he's 4!

Logan will be 4 in August - stll RF, though he recently decided to start eating food, so I know he is getting close to the RF limit on his seat.

Noah hit 32 lbs when he was 2.5, so we turned him then.

I saw this article: http://abcnews.go.com/Health/WellnessNews/Story?id=7818004&page=3

"But for parents of children who weigh more than 35 pounds, finding a rear-facing seat is a challenge. For one thing, there is currently only one model of rear-facing car seat available on the United States market that can accommodate a child up to 40 pounds. Secondly, the cost of the seats ranges from as low as $40 up to $400 or more."

Which carseat are they referring to? Do you know?

[bombedier]

Yes I do! It's the Graco My Ride 65 - RF to 40lbs, FF to 65lbs, or until ouitgrown by height.
