I'm officially a mom....

I don't have much time to get into anything awesome and serious and long winded. I'm currently typing one handed while holding a fussy babe. I'm also taking bites of this yummy veggies casserole I created for dinner. Fear not, I ate dinner at an appropriate time. This is just a snack because I worked up an appetite walking around the park in this insane heat.

Today I'll tell you that we got a new car. Well, a van really. I've made it into motherhood, officially. We've been saving for awhile and researching. We got a great deal and paid cash for this vehicle. We were so excited about that and were able to really see what a blessing saving and waiting can be! Plus, we really felt like we were being good stewards of the money the Lord has provided for us. I'm not saying this to boast, but to be a testimony of waiting and saving and praying over your finances!

We got a swagger wagon. A 2011 Toyota Sienna that we'll probably drive until it dies. I want to make an awesome video. I don't think it will really happen, but it could. And that would be awesome.

I really love this van. I was hesitant {because I wanted a Tahoe}, but not anymore. B loves it and I'm pretty sure he thinks it's a party bus. AR is neutral about it :) It's so nice to have with a toddler and a newborn! And it has automatic doors.

Best. invention. ever.

{not true, but as far as vans go it's an awesome feature}
