Car seat recommendations for a 1 year old?

My baby won’t be 1 until March 1st, but recently I’ve noticed she’s about to outgrow her infant car seat length wise & not weight. She’s tall for her age but still a tiny little thing🥺 I’m having trouble finding the best car seat. I find it hard to believe she’s going to be ready for one of those ones where they’re basically sitting straight up! The things like hugeee! Maybe I’m just in denial. But what’s next? She’s 29 inches tall & almost 21 lbs. Her current seat is the Graco Snugride Click Connect, it has a length limit of 32 inches. I received it at my baby shower.

Someone help I have no idea what in the hell im doing. There are SO many options. Might I add I’m not willing to pay 250+
