Rollin' with my Homies

This post is all about things in our life that roll.

This is NOT rollin' with my homies. This is the boys working 
on being "real men". Just kidding, honey!
Exhibit 1:
Henry
He's been rolling front to back for about a month.
This week he learned to go the other way. 
My period of putting baby down and having him stay put is nearly at an end. Sigh.
Here he is at the "start" position
Workin' on it...workin' on it...
ROLLOVER! (man, check out my sweet hair!)
Whoa! What just happened?!?

Exhibit 2:
This little baby joined our family today. 

We got a screaming deal and both the kids and Tyler got their wishes: 
Sheridan got to drive,

 Jack got the DVD, 
Tyler got the leather seats.
And I got my own sweet, golden chariot with plenty of room in it! The Corolla was getting mighty tight with 3 carseats in the back, and since Henry has nearly outgrown his baby carrier, we HAD to get something bigger or we absolutely would not fit. It is a little disconcerting to now be a Minivan Mama. At least I got a sassy new haircut to keep things real!

Love the minivan and the hair! I can't wait for the day I get a minivan. Henry is so adorable! I can't believe he is mobile already. They grow up way too fast. I hope you are doing well!

Nice mini van, nice hair, could do with a better picture though, one where you're not snorting benadryl or something. ;-)

Love it all! So exciting that you got a van! I'm starting to look at them now too. Scary! So now I'm wondering which car got the boot? :) Hair is adorable too. On you and Henry! I can't believe he's so big! He definitely looks like a Vigue. Miss you guys!

Such cute pictures! I'm really excited that you got a minivan! I'm also excited that Jack and Sheridan wanted to come over and show it off to Corey and me. :) Jack was so cute explaining where everyone sat.

It's a Toyota Sienna. I highly recommend them!
Didn't get to donate the hair--we weren't sure we were going so short originally. I should probably apologize to my fab friend, Rebecca, who cut my hair. It looks much cuter when she does it and when I'm not being a spaz!

Tams Family said...

Way to go! Glad you got such a great deal on your van. And cute hair. And cute Henry. He is way ahead of Zach - still only rolling from front to back. Laziest kid. We hope we can play SOMEDAY!

Cute hair. Cute Henry. And minivans are awesome!

carolyn said...

i should cut my hair short, it is totally falling out post-pregnant now. but mark would like to see how long i can go without cutting it since i normally can't help myself. you remember my college hair days...

we ended up going SUV for our three kids, rather than minivan. needed the 4 wheel drive and the lift for our backwoods road. besides, talk about feeling spiffy, i love my ride. dodge durango with all the trimmings.

Christina said...

Yay, I can't wait to ride in it. I love it, especially the color, and you WILL NOT regret going with the leather seats. I also love your new hair cut. It's very sassy just like you! I can't believe how big Henri is and I haven't even met him yet!

Annie Hatch said...

Love the haircut, you look great! And congrats on the minivan..now that is a special day!

David and Melanie said...

WOOOHOO! Looking good!

Mappy Hama said...

Darling picture of Henry! Maybe we can cross paths by a day so we can at least meet him and see you all! Love your hair! So cute and sassy! Have fun with the van-looks like our old Penny. (Now we have a Yeti!)

Keith and Nicci said...

Love the hair... and we need tips on finding a good minivan deal since that purchase is coming up for us in the next year or so...

Guatemalamama said...

Wow, Henry grew up fast. Congratulations on joining the Mini Van Club. It is one no one wants to join but once you do it means your house and car are filled with lots of cute kids.

A minivan!!!! The dvd player is the best part, eh? Oh, and the space. Love the haircut. Isn't that early for that little guy to be rolling? He sure looks like his dad. Cute boy.
