New Family Vehicle

Dear Baby,

Mommy made a big step today on her pathway to motherhood. She let go of the convertible and bought an SUV!



My VW Cabrio was a birthday present to myself back in 2005 before I moved to California. I decided at that time that if I was going to be living in a warm climate I wanted to have the top down and take advantage of the year long warm weather. That little car took your dad, mom and Louie across country from Minnesota to California. It was a scary time but I was so happy to be reunited with your Dad who had been living in Cali while I finished up college in Chicago. We weren't married at the time and didn't know if we would even be able to make the long distance relationship work, but we did! Now look where we are...married and expecting you, our first beautiful child!

Being that the convertible was very small, only two doors and having a heck of a lot of mechanical issues, Daddy and I decided it was time to start shopping for a more family friendly option. We just received our tax return and figured this was as good of a time as any to start shopping. We test drove a few different models and landed upon the Toyota Highlander. What a beauty and rated very highly in safety ratings. We absolutely love it and can not wait to get a car seat in there in preparations to safely get you home from the hospital.



This is also a big day for you sweet pea. You will be going to an epic concert tonight and since you have ears now, you will actually be able to enjoy it as well! I can't believe one of your first concerts is the legendary PRINCE! Your dad and I look forward to driving our new car to the stadium.

Love you honey bunny.

Love,
Mom
