I am officially a Mini van mom

Its funny I said I would never get one, but I had an infiniti fx 45 LOVED that suv but not practical for a baby. No room in that trunk! and with the baby seat can only fit 3 adults in there then. DH is coming home with it tonight, I cant wait to see it and drive it!!!!

anyone else have a mini van? Love it or hate it?

Re: I am officially a Mini van mom

I have one and I love it. I have 3 carseats in there and plenty of room for DH, me and extra people. Just the other night I took my DS #1 to Disney on Ice in the evening and by the time it ended it was 9:30 (way past his bedtime). I brought pjs and changed him in the minivan with the greatest of ease and he was able to just be carried into bed when he got home. I'd never be able to do stuff like that with any other vehicle. I love it for so many reasons.

What kind did you get? We have a Sienna.

Re: I am officially a Mini van mom

I am trying so hard to convince my hubby to get one - they are so darn comfortable and so practical for babies - car seats + all the other accessories that babies need.

Congrats on your new purchase!Chat Icon

We just bought the Chevy TrailBlazer (it's not a minivan - but a mid-sized, lower SUV). I love it!!!!!!! I FIND places to go just so I can drive it!
