Announcing our New Arrival!

Here I am in the Labor and Delivery wing of the hospital.

Okay, I'm just being mean. No, I did not deliver our baby three months early! I did however spend all Wednesday night throwing up, and they did bring me into the Labor and Delivery wing to get an IV of fluids because I was so dehydrated. Man, that IV was so GOOD! I started feeling much, much better after that.

Our new arrival is...

our new Mazda 5 car/SUV/station wagon/van...we're not sure what it is.


But as modeled by the Marshes here, it seats 6...


And although it's not any longer than our compact cars, it's got the sliding van doors, and a ton more space than Greg's little Honda Civic.

What happened to the Civic you ask?


If you look close, you can see the deer fur...
Although it wasn't that much damage, the '98 Civic wasn't worth very much and so it ended up being totaled.

And the deer? Yeah...he was totaled too.

I was seriously about to freak out! Glad you were teasing and glad you're feeling better! I'm sure that was rough being pregnant AND sick :(

PS... I sent you an evite for New Year's. Did you get it?

Oh, I hope you feel better soon! Being sick during pregnancy is a huge bummer. On a happier note - Yay for the Mazda 5! We have one too and we LOVE it!!! Congratulations on the pregnancy if we haven't already! We are so excited for you both!!

Lara!! That was not funny. I am glad you are feeling better now but no more jokes like that. Congrats on the new car but oh the poor deer...

I have seen a friend buy a similar looking car...but that was back in 2005...I bet they've come even further since then! Cool!

Hope you're staying hydrated!!

You guys are just moving up in the world aren't you? a mini-van with sliding doors- fancy- now you can join the mormon van club! You're official! I like it!
