The first big purchase...

So the wife and I headed out on a mission this afternoon. We wanted to knock out some baby stuff. We can't quite get stuff like bottles and things of that nature because we are having a shower (or more accurately, my sister is having a shower for the wife). We did however pick up two car seats.

This has been quite the debacle. It all started when we purchased a car a little over a year ago. We wanted to be somewhat practical and go with the sedan. We ended up getting an Infiniti G35x. We figured, we can throw a rear-facing child seat behind the wife seat, since she is a shortypants and eventually, when we have our second child, the first one can be behind my seat with a forward facing seat. This car will last us through at least two kids! OOPS! As mentioned in previous posts around here, we are having twins, that means two rear-facing seats at once. This is an issue since ol' lanky pants (me) has to have my seat all the way back.

Our first reaction was "We HAVE to sell this car!" It turns out that the seat will fit, but I have to lean my seat forward a tad and slide it forward a bit, but it will all work out.

There you have it, first official baby crisis averted!

A special thanks goes out to my mom's side of the family for the giftcards for the car seats. Peanut and Pickle were going bonkers the entire day. I'm pretty sure they knew we got them some presents.
