Yes we do, and that's the plan! Although why in the hell do the extra bases cost almost as much as another car seat!!!
Because as you learn, baby stuff is as costly as aircraft hardware...because you simply "have" to have it or you are a neglectful parent.....Think of the Children......

I never sat in a child seat growing up, hell, I never wore a seat belt, I sat on the trans hump in my parents old merc's. Sometimes I would sit on the arm rest just so I could be at the same level, all this crap, it's bullshit.
Ding Ding Ding....we have a winner.... you need a ton of diapers, a ton of wipes, a ton of those little one piece thingies for the baby to wear, get the kind like a sleeping bag with arms for the winter. a ton of those cloth diapers to put over your shoulder for spit-ups.do your best to help out as much as you can.
No one can really tell you because you have to find out for yourself but after the scared shitless phase is over, then the I am so tired , I can't believe it phase sets in, you will get into a routine as best you can and will see that a lot of stuff in the "magazines" is fluff. Even more so for the second child...with the second, there is no scared shitless phase either.

That's what my youngest rides in.

With the LATCH system car seats are a breeze to put in take out, 2 clips, yank on the strap and done. I'm going to have LATCH bars put in the Vette when I get the second harness done.

BTW we have a nice Graco seat w/additional base and stroller that we can part with for you soon to be fathers!

PS it's only BS if you live to tell about it. If you went through the windshield when you were two you might feel diff't.

My idea is get through it w/o buying a bunch of crap we won't use after 6mo-1yr. However, the wife did get that damn SUV stroller. I'm going to let her fight w/ it for a while and let her figure out how much of a PITA it is going to be...

one of the battery operated reclining swing things is worth it. some sort of stand up in but has a springy bottom thing is pretty cool too once the baby is about 5 months. A portable fold up playpen is a very good idea from the very beginning.

Are we ACTUALLY having this conversation on the MM board?

Could somebody give a buzz down to hell, make sure it's still there... in it's warm state?
When it comes to Ryan Jenkins, the story ends with me putting him in the wall.

We got the swing already, I'll wait on the other things until I _need_ them Wink.

You can not click on the thread? Or you could be glad that SOMEBODY is breeding new racers.

Chad you have to admit that most of us (read: the single guys) probably dont need to reproduce... at least not for a LONG time. Those of you that are married... we can only pray that your wives contribute a great deal in their gene pool... for looks... for brains... and hopefully some sanity... All of the MM wives seem well suited for this Tongue and prefect baby races shall come forth and do donuts before entering winners circles...

the rest of us are just out looking for our reality checks... i mean wives... someone to be supportive yet the voice of logic for our petty lives. Think of yourself as lucky.

Maybe a "no offense intended" warning was necessary before my post...

You are not going to offend me via a message board Wink nor should anyone allow themselves to be offended.

I want another Fish!

I used to have a Betta Fish, his name was Sue.

I'm pretty sure my ex killed him.

You wouldnt shut up about that fucking fish the other day, I think you were drunk.

I'll get you another beta, just so that I can slice it up and serve it over rice, Sashimi style.
