Recommendations for low-tone toddler

We have a new little guy coming home soon, and I'm trying to figure out the best seat for him.

He's 14 m/o right now, likely to be about 18 m/o when he comes home. At 13 m/o, he was 15 pounds and 28" tall. So little...obviously going to be RFing.

He's EXTREMELY hypotonic. He can hold his head, roll over, and sit assisted at this point.

He'll be in our Quest in the center row captain's chair most of the time, so space shouldn't be too much of an issue. We're also going to need an option for my DH's Aspen, so size may be an issue there.

Any suggestions??

I was thinking the Graco My Ride might be something to consider. It has nice deep sides, and I believe that the newer models have an insert with an extra harness height slot to last longer, although maybe someone else will be able to verify that info. I have a My Ride for my 2.5 year old son that I've been using rear-facing, and I really like it as a rear-facing seat.

I like the look of the new Momentum65 from Evenflo. It has an insert and integrated side bolsters. Plus, with the sliding harness you can make sure it's always right at his shoulders. It should be in BRU next week.

Good to know on the Momentum65...the MyRide was already on our radar too, just wasn't sure how it'd be with his tone issues.

Any others?
