Things change when you realize that a husband who is 6'3" and two kids (and 2 carseats and all the other crap you usually have to take with you when you have two kids) really don't fit very well into a 1996 Honda Civic. We got tired of stuffing ourselves into the car every time we went somewhere as a family. So, I am now joining the ranks of the moms-who-drive-minivans. Yikes. It's an adjustment, but I'm sure I'll get used to the idea eventually. I had to laugh, though, that the day after we bought the minivan Christopher got invited over to another little boy's house for a play date. I thought to myself, "And so it begins..." The only thing left to do now is get the kids involved in soccer and the transformation will be complete....I will officially be a Soccer Mom. Yikes again.
Anyway, here are some pictures of our new purchase. It's a 2003 Honda Odyssey EX-L. It's pretty cool and Christopher loves it! I have to say that, so far, it has been great! It is so much easier to get the kids in and out of. Also, Matt can actually drive it when both car seats are in there (something he couldn't do when both car seats were in the Civic).
(You can see Christopher's huge car seat in this picture....Jessica's car seat wasn't installed yet)
