I hesitated. I finally told him that while I know we are about to have 2 children...I just don't think I'm ready for a minivan.
He said that was fine. He would put both car seats in the back of the Jeep & we could see how they fit.
Once we got home, Mark got the baby seat from the basement & loaded it and Eddie's seat into the Jeep.
He came back in & said that he wouldn't be comfortable in the passenger seat...but maybe I would fit.
I ventured out, assuming I wouldn't have a problem.
As it turned out, I had to prop my knees on the dash.
The Jeep was no longer going to work for us. But at least I felt better that I had tried to make it work.
He listed it on Saturday on Craigs List & Auto Trader.
The Jeep sold Monday night.
Tuesday afternoon we took a test drive & now parked in our garage is this:

It was all a bit of a whirlwind...but we both feel good about it. AND I don't have to prop my knees on the dash when the car seat is behind me. :)

So exciting!....and I think minivans ARE cool. Just picture summer adventures to the beach, trips to the park, and road trips! The ultimate family vehicle :)
Oh I am a bit jealous! I don't really want to have a minivan, but they have so much more room.
Congrats on the minivan!!
