We are the proud new owners of .. a mini-van! I'll just let THAT one sink in ..... I told Tim when we got married that I would *NEVER* drive a mini-van. An SUV ~ ok. But NOT a mini-van. Funny how dramatically your priorities change when you have children. Because, frankly, the coolness factor of driving a van is next to nothing. And yet, somehow, I feel like it's some kind of strange rite-of-passage into motherhood. (Like giving birth wasn't?) Maybe it's because we live in Utah ~ mini-van capital of the world. I mean, we're Mormon. Aren't we supposed to have 10 kids and drive a mini-van? I've got the mini-van now, but I guess I'm behind a couple of children. I mean, I'm 25 for crying-out-loud. I've only got a good 15 reproductive years left (give or take). But, seriously, does this mean I have to get the relief-society hair cut now?

Hi Katie! Hooray for blogging! I've linked you on my blog so I can keep up you and your little family. :)
Also, minivans: I have mixed feelings about them, too. Have fun with yours. At least it's a MINIvan and not an 18-seater. Though, like you say, you've got a good 15 reproductive years left -- maybe one day you'll need that 18-seater. ;)
so excited to see you here! it will change your life... for the better!
You're so funny. You know you're really old (like me) when you've long outgrown that mini-van (and the Suburban) and you're back to the small gas savers you drove pre-children. Love you, Lori
