Can't lock doors when keys are in ignition to warm up car

I live in a cold climate and in the winter I like to warm up my car, especially now with a new baby, and go back in the house until it heats up for a few minutes. I've discovered that while the keys are in the ignition and the car is running, I cannot lock the car doors on my '98 S70 with the remote or with the button on the door while the door is open.

I like the fact that the car won't let me forget my keys, but not being able to lock the car while it is running makes me feel very uneasy. Is there a workaround to this?
