Our New Addition...



No, this isn't quite the blond, blue-eyed variety we normally bring home, but an addition none the less :)


We finally went minivan shopping, and decided to go the cheap, er, practical route, and got a Dodge Grand Caravan, which saved us a ton compared to the Odyssey or the Sienna. We figured we could spend $10,000 extra on the Odyssey, but then we'd probably have to sell one of the twins. I think we made the right decision, but we'll keep you posted if this offer is one the table again in the next couple of weeks.

So, we've had a transition over the last day or so. Matt reluctantly traded in his Isuzu Rodeo, but he wanted one parting shot with his baby before he drove it in to the dealership and said goodbye. He's smiling through the pain. I think he made out on the deal, considering he now gets to drive our Acura TSX - poor guy!



Megan and Bridget were so excited with the new car that we loaded them up and took them for a spin around the neighborhood last night, just before bedtime. They're in the "way back," since that's where the cool kids sit. Hopefully, the novelty won't wear off when their matching in-car entertainment arrives in the captain seats in front of them very soon.




We're officially ready to be a family of six now! I even have everything organized in our bedroom ready for two babies to come home from the hospital!


Okay, now I'm off to elevate my stumps .... I mean, feet! They are not looking good right now!
