Car Shopping!

We have decided to trade in our car, hopefully this weekend.  I took the Yaris this morning and had the seats shampooed and the car cleaned so it looks nice for appraisal.  We are hoping to get into something a little bigger and keep our payment the same, so we will see.  We have been looking around and have decided to buy from Jim Click, where Jane got her Focus.  Matt really likes the Mitsubishi Lancer and I really like the Mazda 3 or Mazda 5.  We plan to go tomorrow afternoon after Hayden's last soccer game and his soccer party.  Hayden thinks car shopping is really cool and we are going to let him pick the color of our new car, within reason of course!  If we can't really find what we like or if they don't make us a deal, we plan to wait 6 months and re-visit it then.

He is also just now at the 30 pound mark, so we are going to get him a "big boy carseat" when we have the new car.  He will still be in a harness with latches of course, but the seat he's getting will be a little wider and last him now until he's 100 pounds.  He's quite excited for this and I will of course take pictures of all the fun.

Just wanted to give that quick little update.  We are going to the driving range this afternoon to hit golf balls, so I'll get some pictures.  Lots of love!
