Should I buy a seat harness for Mckenna??? She has never been for a car ride longer than 30 minutes and she always sits in the back seat or the front passenger seat depending on how excited she is. Sometimes she is so excited that she stands up and tries to look out the window for a few minutes. one time she almost fell off the seat because she saw a group of people crossing the street in front of us and she started jumping up and down.

Also, do I have to make rest stops for her to relieve herself even though it won't be any longer than 2 hours? I plan to just drive it straight. I'm used to long car rides.
I definitely recommend either a car seat or a harness belt. They jump around and god forbid you had to make a short stop she would get hurt.

I recently made a car seat for Lulu...although it was fun it's not as good as I would like or as sturdy so I am going to buy her a snoozer. Better safe than sorry. She loves to go in the car and if I am driving likes to drive too but I know it's dangerous for us both.
