Yeah i hear what you're saying, that's what i was thinking. My DS2 is 20 months and stopped having day sleeps a few months ago, but he does fall asleep in the car on long drives, which i can see maybe happening which will be annoying.

We're getting a new car which actually has the gas system, so that will save on fuel costs.

There's a public school in walking distance from our house, and a private one as well, but we don't like either of them. I really would have liked him to make friends in the area as its a family area, kids everywhere all the time, lots of little parks. But we can't jut choose a local school based on that...
