The day that Dustin and I have both been dreading came on Saturday. Neither of us really had to shop for our first vehicles, mine was from a family friend and Dustin's was from the Bank One Auction, so we both got lucky and got a great deal so no need to haggle on the price. The experience wasn't as bad as we both thought, but it was 7 hours before we drove off the lot. We are excited about our new car and love it! What I'm really going to enjoy even more is driving to Utah this summer without my knees 2 inches from the dash. Morgan's favorite part, rolling her window down. Ethan's favorite part, looking out the window.
Now the reason for our purchase, baby #3 is due the end of October. We would have waited a few more months to purchase the van, but like I said before, driving with my knees 2 inches from the dash is no fun, but add a belly to that and I'm sure I would have been miserable. Which Dustin informed me means, that him and the kids would be too. This ultrasound is at 6 weeks, which is why you can't see a baby yet. Next week I go in for another ultrasound so I can post better pictures.
Ethan still doesn't understand what's going on, but neither did Morgan when I was pregnant with Ethan. But Morgan is really excited and mentions the baby quite a bit. The day after we told her I found her reading the Baby Bump magazine that my doctor's office gave me while eating breakfast. She pointed to every pregnant women and said, "They have a baby in their tummy." Then she started saying Dustin and Ethan had a baby in their tummies, so I explained that only girls can have babies in their tummies. Of course, then she said she had a baby in her tummy. Than I had to explain she had to wait to until she got married in the temple to have a baby in her tummy. Of course, she wanted to go to the temple right away. Then I had to explain she had to wait 20 years before getting married in the temple. She still talks about when she will go to the temple to get married and get a baby in her tummy when she's big like mommy.
