My new ride


Out with the old...


...in with the new!

Okay not so NEW anymore, we've had it for a little while now, but we LOVE our CRV! I was really reluctant to get rid of the Passat. Maybe it was because Ryan picked me up in that car for some of our first dates. It was the "Just Married" car he drove me away from our wedding reception in. It was the car we placed our first child in her carseat and drove her home from the hospital in. It was paid off. It was comfortable and pretty. BUT it cost a small fortune to fix. It was expensive to insure BECAUSE it was expensive to fix. We had to put the expensive gas in it. Yadda, yadda, yadda...

I thought I would miss the Passat but I don't at all. I love my new ride. I feel like more of a mom in a bigger car. Next stop, minivan?

Ooh nice! Having a bigger car is so convenient when you have kids! You need space for strollers and giant boxes of diapers and pack and plays and all that stuff. Glad you are loving your family car!

With baby #3 a mini van is the way to go...but for the next few years enjoy your new ride. It is a nice car!

As a mother, it is normal to be practical. And this car showcases what a wise spender you are. At times like this, we don't need expensive cars or gadgets. Shannon is right, this car is pretty convenient since you have kids. And when you go out for some groceries, you still have space to put them in.
