especially moms of 4 or more kids!?!?!
We bought a Dodge Caravan Sport way back in 1999 after our first DD was born and now 4 kids later it's just not working anymore!! Actually it really stopped being big enough after baby # 3, but it was so nice not having a car payment that we just made it work!!!
Well after trying to travel home after Christmas with all the kids and all the gifts......it was horrible and we have finally decided that we NEED a bigger vehicle!!!
We have 3 car seats (2 high back boosters and the baby just moved to a convertible) and will for quite sometime since my 2nd DD is quite the peanut (6 and only 44 lbs) and I fear will be in her high back booster till she is 8 or 9, so we almost need something that seats 8 passengers.
I haven't done any research yet so I have no idea what is even out there but if we stay with a van I think I'd almost want captain's chairs in the second row because it's quite hard for my oldest DD to crawl in the back of our van now (she is the total opposite of DD #2 and is quite tall for her age: 10y/o and probably 4' 10") under the seat belt. Of course then there is always the possibility of adding to our family (
crazy ...right...I know
) and then I might need something that holds 4 car seats!!!
So what do you haul your crew around in!?!? Any suggestions... recommendations!?! I'm not apposed to looking at SUV either!!
