Thank you all... I can't say it enough!
We used Layla's carrier in the car for the first time today and it didn't go so well. She couldn't see through the mesh so we kept the top open for her to poke her head out but she kept crying and trying to climb out
I kept trying to push her back in, pitifully, because I had a couple of spots removed from my skin Monday so I have stitches in my hand that she was trying to scratch up! I'm also hobbling around with stitches on the bottom of one foot so Layla and I are a nice couple of cripples together
But anyways, I think we're going to stick with the wire crate in the car after we get home today. I don't want her to end up hating her stroller and carrier because she hates being confined on car rides!
