Did we really get to this point?
How?
We got a (shhhh! say it quietly).......mini-van!
The ironic part is...I like it a lot! I mean a lot!
I had but one request. If we got a mini-van it had to have the bells and whistles to make me feel better for succumbing to the ultimate of suburban mom, grocery getting, errand running, sweat pant wearing status symbol.
Am I already middle-aged?
I don't have any grey hairs (but Jay does, teehee).
Please, someone tell me when middle-age starts! What are the symptoms?
Is it when you say, "Because I said so." (I said that today....twice. And I meant it!)
Is it when you wear the same shirt you wore yesterday beacause it wasn't really that dirty and you didn't have any other clean ones (beacause you used all your laundry energy doing the grubby clothes of 3 little hooligans)?
Or is it when you start a Facebook profile and realize that the last good picture of yourself was before you had kids?
Seriously...a mini-van? But you can't argue with power sliding doors and a DVD player.
Besides, all the other preschool Moms drive one!
WHAT?!

Oh, I hear you! The minivan debate will be alive a long as there are Young, hip Moms. I have the same thoughts. I don't want one, but secretly I think they might be pretty great. Maybe someday we will be driving matching vans. :)
Hi!! I am so glad to have found your blog. WHere are you guys?? Are you in Virginia? I can't believe how big Drew and Owen are...and who is the newest addition? I know minivans are terribly uncool...especially when they start smelling like stale french fries and you can no longer get the carpets to look remotely clean. I will read the rest of your blog tomorrow, but it's almost 2 am and I should probably sleep at some point. We miss you!
