The landscape has changed since then and we don't leave the house past 8pm, but Peace and Fuzzy still come over to eat chips and salsa from time to time, which keeps us feeling a little like we still have lives.
I don't know whether I mentioned it here or not, but we decided a few months ago to sell my convertible and replace it with a 4-door. It's ridiculous to get a baby in and out of the backseat, and she isn't really safe with the top down (you know, flying debris and little eyeballs and all that stuff). In a serendipitous turn of events, SNG's new boss' husband bought it. I'm sure he'll get lots of great years out of the cherry bomb.
It's really best that we sold it because the car wasn't getting much use (it's had about 2000 miles on it over the past year) and around here, a convertible should be driven. A lot. But I'm sad because I really enjoyed that car.
Today we bought its replacement. The ScoobyDoo has a new sister, and they now need new names.
Say hello to Ruby-Doo and Scooby-Blue!

Wow!! At least you did not choose a minivan. Not-to-mention, how cute, you match!
Yep, matching cars, awwww. Now, please forgive me while I inquire, what kind of suv is that?
It's a Subaru Forester (both of them are, actually). It's somewhere between a car and SUV, and we've really enjoyed the blue one we got last year, so getting a 2nd on just made sense.
We're discussing whether or not to keep DH's car. It depends on when we can sell this house. We've discussed his next vehicle; I expect it will be a truck. Got to have something to haul stuff around in where we are going! ;-)
I was thinking up a joke about matching cars - then I remembered that Katrin and I both have Jettas. We're cute like that, too.
It took me a while to notice that e-baby is behind the wheel of the Volvo! That is among the cutest pictures ever, and there have been a lot of them. :-)
Wow. Jim is much more observant than us mere mortals. DH says "Aww, isn't that cute!" about E in the drivers seat. Just wait, in 14 years she can have a learner's permit!
Yeah, and then she can drive HERSELF to daycare! (Oh, wait...)
Hey, we're a two-Subaru household too! Love those cars. And love the pic of e-baby "driving" the Volvo.
