We have friends who have had multiple kids and both parents had sedans. So we figured that would work for us well. One thing we did not consider though, was both our height and our kids' height. So combine the fact that our seats need to be all the way back, Tripp has long legs, and my car is just not a big car, we had some serious space issues. So we decided to go on the car hunt. We were both first thinking SUV, but then practicality took over and the mini van won out. I found a great deal on a used Honda Odyssey on line and we went one day to check it out. I loved it, we took it to our mechanic to check it out and after he said it looked great, we decided to go for it. And after owning it for about 48 hours, I couldn't love it more. We drove around today with three adults and two kids and could not have been more comfortable (except for all the crying by a small baby)!

And we now own a mini van
