New Car!

We got a new car! Its a 2004 Honda Odyssey EX. It was funny because we drove around to dealerships and only one had a van of any kind in our price range and this one had 3. But one had almost 200,000 miles on it and the other one was a dodge caravan and it had goods specs and we were thinking abou getting it. Then he opened the door and reeked of cigerette smoke. It was really bad so we thought we would just have to keep looking. Then as we were about to leave he said they got a new car in and it was getting a new transmition and it would be ready wednesday. And it was a 2004 odyssey! It seems so funny that there are no decent vans in our price range except for one and its super nice. It has the upgraded features like leather warming seats and a dvd player. I was really willing to give up a lot to get car that will last and I'm super happy to get one that is the best of both worlds. (I know nothing is for certain, but we can hope! It has good mileage and a clean carfax. Its a Honda and a lot of the other cars were 2001) I'm grateful to Jonathan who works so hard and lets me stay at home and got me an awesome car. We are all sick right now so I think we're just going to relax this week. Except Jonathan, he doesn't relax. He'll probably build me a roof on my patio. He's the best.

Things have been crazy latley. Isaac is improving his fit throwing skills with lots of practice. He is also getting very good at understanding and talking. It is such a relief when I can tell him to wait until we get home or that I am getting him a snack. Althought it is a little embarassing when I'm talking him out of church and he yells, "BE NICE!!!!" Gotta love Isaac. He said his first prayer. "Please Food. Please Food. Please Food." Jonathan has been working so hard on the patio! He just has to put the roof on now! I am so happy about how well he has done!. He is also finding names to add to his family tree. He has made a lot of progress there as well. I am proud of him. Allie can take a few steps. She is mostly crawling.I am enjoying her still being my little baby. The weather hasn't gotten too hot yet so we have been spending lots of time outside. At the park and in the backyard. We bought a lot of stuff at the dollar store for summer fun. Isaac is loving his bat. He LOVES to play baseball. When Jonathan first taught him anything was the bat and Allie and my heads were the ball. He seems to have let that go and will play with his real bat and ball. He loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. He says, "Mou! Mou!" Life is going well. I've been a bit stressed with all of Isaac's fit throwing but having lots of fun at the park and spending time with my friends. Katie Colton made that cute bow Allie's wearing when we had craft night. oh ya, Isaac and Jonathan had their very first Father and Son campout! It was great! I wasn't there but they had hot dogs and smores and Isaac played with another 2 year old who said Isaac was his best friend! I had a great mother's day. Jonathan made me a very special breakfast and i got a new shirt. Yay for Summer
