Car Seat ?

My son is 11 months and weighs about 22 pounds, woould it be okay to turn him around.I know you are supposed to wait until they are one and at least twenty pounds but he is really hating his car seat now and he looks a little silly being that big facing rear.He is crawling and has taken a few steps so he seems strong enough.Any thought would be appreciated.thanks

Need Help Choosing a Car

My car is in the shop and it might just cost more to repair than it's worth, and if so, I'll need to find something quick! I drive a Saturn Wagon... been thinking about a change anyway, because I can't seat more than two kids and I'd like more seating for friends, etc... I would love to hear what you are driving, what you like/don't like about it, how much seating you have, etc.. Thanks for your help!
