The women on Patrick's side of the family were too kind and bought us a car seat/stroller/travel system from our registry. THANK YOU!!! It arrived already - Patrick enjoyed his new-found "inner Dad" and installed the base of the car seat today (hopefully we won't need to use it for another eight weeks).

ps: Patti is thrilled that the car seat matches the interior of the car. She might have even said "our baby will have the coolest ride ever."
