Soccer mom before kid # 1!

This past month we have been searching for a minivan. Yes we want one even with just one kid. We have done several test drives and bargained with some dealers but were not getting to the price we wanted. This Sat we tried to take another stab at it. We went to a dealer in Fremont and found a beautiful slightly used 2012 silver town and country van with black leather. So we test drove it and then went into the room I hate and Scott Loves: The negotiating room! Scott loves sales and gets a rush out of it, while I sit there uncomfortably wishing for it to end. Well lets just say 3 1/2 hours later we drove off with our new family car!! We got it for the price we wanted. Finally the search is over. We just love it. It has the stow and go feature where you can just fold the chairs down into the floor and have tons of storage space!! We are now planning our first road trip to Yosemite in 2 weeks. We will just throw down a mattress and sleep in the van!

As for the pregnancy, my belly is growing fast! And the baby is just moving around like crazy and kicking stronger and stronger! We are excited to meet her in 2 months. Here are some pics of the growing belly.
