Can somebody tell me the best way to tell my rapidly growing child (pyr)
SHE DOESN'T FIT IN THE FRONT SEAT ANYMORE!!
Geez, it's hysterical!  We often make short trips in our "second car", a
small four door economy-style, manual transmission.
We open the back door, she just walks in of course, no jumping
required......then helps herself up front. (bad dog!) ;-)
She always goes right to sleep in any vehicle, (as if bored by the whole
experience) so we usually wait for her to get comfy and lay down before
we leave the driveway.....
At one time she could curl up nicely in the passenger seat up front for
scratches and conversation.  

Yesterday, she just wouldn't give up...in the front passenger seat
curled up one direction, head was smushed, feet were hanging off.  So
she got up and curled the other way......no, that wasn't right either,
her head had to rest on the parking brake, and she was practically off
the seat anyway, just not right.......(she looked at me like this was
all my blessed fault and I should fix it immediately!) So with a HUGE
sigh of frustration, she sat up, turned sideways (away from me) and
leaned on the seat as if to say "all right, get this over with......".
Never conceding that the back seat was very available, and spacious
enough to lay down. (When I was done chuckling I did help her again to
the rear seat......we just had to go through the motions)

I keep telling her that seat is going to keep getting smaller as her
little bottom keeps getting wider! (she doesn't like comments like that)
Maybe I should get her a job and tell her to buy something she approves
of! Then she can make fun of my car.

(Oh, don't feel sorry for her.....her other car is a new full-size
extended cab truck, purchased solely for her highness)
