My New Ride!!!

Check It Out!!! Feast your eyes upon my very own bright red Dodge Grand Caravan. Jealous?? Before you start freaking out that we have totally gone into parent mode and bought ourselves a mini-van, this is a rental. About a month ago, a lady backed into me in the CVS parking lot. My car was PARKED and she came out of her space and didn't turn, just pulled straight back. So we got it in the shop yesterday to be fixed so that hopefully that will be taken care of before Will arrives. It is supposed to be done on Thursday. So this is my ride for the next few days. It feels so different driving something so large! The guy started laughing when I went in to pick up the rental car because he had rented me the mini-van before knowing I was pregnant. His words were, "You'll be a soccer mom before you know it!" I assured him that I was fine just renting a car (apparently they had to give me an SUV/van since my car that is being repaired is an SUV. He told me the only car they had was a Prius and he thought that would be too small for me. Wow.

Oh how it reminds me of my lovely cherry red Cadillac rental car that I drove after my wreck last fall.........I was devastated that I had to drive a Granny car!!! I am not sure what's worse...the Caddy or the van! :)
