I'm sure being a sedan owner he'd rather eBay off one of the kids first.

hehee thanks guys... everything is going well, managed 5 hours sleep last night (up from 3 hours the first night)... 
yep the zzzzz in my name was for sleep Phil
fitted two baby seats in the lib yesterday and was kinda surprised how little room there was between the babyseat and back of the drivers seat. The one Im referring to is the one in the newborn (ie facing backwards) position. I had to re-set my memory position after moving my seat forward slightly to accomodate it (and Im not a big person by any stretch)
Is the space the same in a wagon? Has anyone else noticed this?
cheers
James

what brand seats do you have?
I take it you have your infant seat behind the drivers seat.
I test fitted our seat in the rear facing position the other day & there is no way I'm moving my seat that far forward & upright
we were hoping to leave the 2.5yld on the passenger side & the newborn behind the driver.
They always say to have the newborn on the passenger side but our theory is its worse to have a hypo/bouncing toddler on the drivers side then, having your back/but to the traffic with a newborn

first let me say congratulations mate and then get straight to the the advice.
easiest (and in all practicality, the only) way is newborn in the middle .you simply cannot put the baby seat behind a seat unless the person sitting on that seat is 5'1" or willing to squash their face on the windscreen and crunch their knees. with the second the best spot is behind the passenger.
that way you have the most room with the rear facing seat and the closest eye on the other kid who is effectively boxed in
i'm fricked if i know what we're gonna do come late december though with the 3rd cub on the way
no......really.... i'm lookin' for suggestions here

Adam! What a horrible thing to say! I would never suggest such a thing! I meant for you to sell the kid to finance further mods on the Liberty.

unfortunately jim, i like the way you think... and that could get 1 or both of us arrested 
why.... you wanna buy a kid?
it seems like the only mod you don't have for NYOOMI thus far
they don't come in carbon fibre or chrome though...
