Well, my loving husband voluntarily gave up his beloved pickup truck so we could get "the family vehicle." We have actually survived decently with the little Saturn Ion and pickup for the last couple months. Our poor dog hasn't been able to go anywhere with us, but the four of us have ventured out and utilized creative packing during trips to Costco.
No more tight rides and jammed cabs of groceries...look at this monster. Here's our GMC Yukon XL....
We have been looking for a good used Suburban with low miles and a reasonable price (under $30,000 - yes isn't that crazy for a used vehicle). We were lucky to find the GMC version of the Suburban meeting the above criteria and not giving up the luxuries Matt loved about his truck (leather, heated seats, XM, tow package, etc). And everyone fits - VERY COMFORTABLY!
Now we're ready for those family road trips!!!!

A Trip Down Memory Lane....Our Wedding
This is for our dear friend, Melissa, who has been there for Matt and I since the beginning of our relationship. Here is a link to two sets of photos on Flickr.com that show hundreds of photos from our wedding. These are not the ones from the official photographer (though just as good) but were taken by our good friend, Brian Snabes.
Enjoy, everyone (you may be in some of these photos if you were there)!!!!

All Dressed Up and Nowhere to Go
The boys will be 2 months old on Sunday and they are now just getting big enough to wear the 0-3 month clothing and not look ridiculous. So even though we had no place to go and no visitors, I had to put these outfits on Joseph and Jacob. Aren't they cute?

How Things Change
We are quickly realizing how babies take over your life and house! We're slowing losing real estate in our living room as more "baby stuff" acculumate. You probably saw in an earlier post the two swings that we needed. We also have a Graco playpen and double bassinet plus change table in the living room. Of course, we have a change table/dresser with the two cribs upstairs. Now as we are learning how important the babies need "tummy time" - we have two playmats on the floor also.
The need to finish the basement for additional living space if fast approaching!

Photos from our Trip to Minnesota
Well we have arrived back safely in Michigan late last night. It's good to be home but now we're trying a new routine. Matt went to work this morning and I am home with the babies alone. I was going to attempt some errands today with the boys but as there is rain/sleet/snow falling with icy roads, I think that I'll just stay put.
Here's some more photos from our trip. If you want to see all the photos, you can visit my photo album at http://www.flickr.com/photos/trulytam/sets/72157594563963032/
Jacob finished with Bath - all clean!
