Cars and the news....

I had to blog this because it made me smile, doting mother that I am. I took Myles "car shopping" today, as he has recently become infatuated with them. We approached the toy aisle where rows of shiny little Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars were just waiting to be played with. I handed Myles a couple of packages and told him that he could pick one, and (my boy!!) he chose the cute little classic cars including a VW Bug like Daddy used to have! I let him hold them while we finished shopping, as he would have it no other way, and he had them open by the time we got to the register. As I handed them to the cashier to ring them up, you could have heard the words "CAR! CAR!" across the store. I let him take them out of the package and he proceeded to drive them all over the shopping cart handle and along the sides.
When we got home we got the rest out of the package, and Myles decided that underneath his hign chair made the perfect "garage". He parked all of them under there and has been driving them in and out ever since. They say that money doesn't buy happiness, but $4.99 has bought me at least an hour and a half of peace and quiet, and a huge smile. I'll take it :)

And, in bigger news, Myles is going to be a big brother!! Now, if I had told you that in the beginning, would you have read the whole thing? I had to be sneaky. We are very excited, especially Myles who doesn't want a "brother or sister", he wants a "BABY"! Ever since we told him he has stopped calling himself baby, now he is "Mys". I have my first dr. appt on Febuary 7th, so I will post the ultrasound picture. I am due around the middle of September, by my calculations. We seem to be good a lumping the birthdays together. Myles and Danny's are 3 days apart, and mine and the baby's will likely be a couple of weeks. Oh well, guess we'll just have to do it up!
Okay, now that I have rambled on so long that your eyes have likely crossed from looking at the screen, i'll end the blog. Love to hear from you!
