2 CM and a new car!!

Yesterday was a big day. We went to the doctor in the morning only to discover that I have progressed from 0 to 2 centimeters dilated in one week! WOW! This bit of news was followed by a lot of activity and walking around dealerships for the rest of the day. But it was worth it because we got a GREAT deal on a 2003 Chrysler Town & Country minivan and got great trade-in values for the Buick and the motorcycle. And because of that, we ended up having to only roll over about $2500 instead of the 5-6k we were expecting. Woohoo! So we have pretty much the same car payment for a newer vehicle with less miles and more room than the Buick. So yes, I have now crossed the line to minivan country. I'm pretty happy overall. I'll miss the SUV, but this is better for our lifestyle I think. Especially considering that our cross country trips will now have to be done by road instead of air.

We need to go back tonight and finish the paperwork on it. It got to be so late last night that they let us go home with it on dealer tags.
