We traded our Toyota Highlander for this sporty new car. A Chrysler Town and Country MINIVAN. I never thought I'd get one. I thought I'd be the cool mom sporting a cool SUV. Cramming 2 carseats and a booster was really tough. Also lifting that infant car seat over either booster or car seat was very tough on the back. Let me say that having a minivan is awesome. I never thought having dual power doors and power trunk (power gate) would be such a luxury. We don't have a DVD system in the new car and I thought our kids would have a fit about it but they transitioned very well. We'll see about long car rides.
I have to say that driving around this hot red minivan, I'm feeling quite the cool mom. I'm officially a mommy of three little ones. :)

Yay, you joined the club! Minivans are cool these days! We have the Honda Odyssey Touring and I love driving it. They're so convenient.
wow! congrats! i don't blame you at ALL for the switch. i couldn't imagine trying to squeeze in that infant seat between two boosters.
wow, an infant seat with 2 boosters... can't even imagine. you ARE a super mom. i personally have NO problems with minivans. they are super handy.
didn't realize that hubs would have an issue with that though, as we're looking for a new car too these days. i love our beat-up honda, and wouldn't trade it if it weren't for N. our AC died. gosh, it'll be the biggest expense either of us will make. yikes! :)
SK has a HUGE problem with minivans but i think realizes now that it may be inevitable. i'm not a huge fan yet, but i do understand that they are very convenient.
I've seen some minivans that make me want one... Congrats on the new vehicle, a red hot one! I suppose, now that you're a mother of three, you need one.
