Say, "Hello Kitty!"

They start so young, these women of today. Shopping that is... Lily couldn't resist modeling her new "Baby Kitty" outfit she picked up on a recent shopping trip with Mom.





We know what really happens after a big shopping trip don't we? ...She becomes a bit more like Dad.

Happy Valentines Day!

We are so in love with our Little Lillianna. We couldn't help but capture this golden nugget on the compact flash card. While watching our regular boring political tv programming we happenned to look over and see this....

Baby's Got New Wheels!

Thanks to the grace of God, and the amazing finance guy at Luther Honda in Hopkins, Minnesota, we have another new addition to our family. Meet the 2005 Chrysler Town and Country "MINI-VAN" ...that's right, we are now the proud owners of a mini-van!


Of course this excitment could never match the excitment of our first addition to the family...but we are none-the-less very excited and still a bit in shock (not sticker shock), but good old fashioned "I can't believe that really just happened" shock.

We started out Saturday morning thinking we would just "go look" and perhaps ask a few questions for clarification. Then we decided..."maybe we should wait"..then we thought, "ok...but we know we're not going to get one today"..."we don't have enough down"..."we don't have the proper paperwork together"...etc..etc. Finally we decided to head to the dealership and just get our questions answered. You can guess the rest of the story. Before we knew it, they were handing us the keys and saying "Congratulations". Except this time (thanks to our having both worked at a Honda Dealership in Tennessee) we knew what we wanted and how to not get taken. Yes, we got exactly the deal and the price we wanted.

We are still in a period of serious disbelief. We are LOVIN' the vehicle and now baby Lily can travel in style with all her gear. Now we just need to make four more friends, or have four more kids.
