Bigger Than A Baby and A Bread Box


What's bigger than a baby and bread box, you ask? My new super cute Subaru Imprezia Sport. Yeah, Sport, cuz it's a hatchback and very styling because even though I'm a mom who has barely has time to look in the mirror I still need some cool wheels.

I love my new car. It's been ten years since I've had my own car and I forgot how fun it is to drive not in a city. City driving sucks. Country driving while listening to loud rock music that you listened to in high school (no, the baby isn't in the car, mom, I know loud music is not good for little ears) is fun. It's freedom and man does it feel good.

Driving with the Bean isn't as scary as I thought it would be. It's miserable to drive while she cries but today she stopped as soon as I turned on Lucinda Williams. Driving in the winter is going to be a whole another deal but like I said, here's to a balmy NH winter.

Today the Bean is one month old! Nice job, Bean. She spit-up like someone's skinny cat all day to celebrate. There's nothing like baby spit-up all over your clothes, couch, and car to really welcome in September. Here's hoping that month #2 will be excellent and possibly provide a few more sleep opportunities for good old mom and dad as we've had about 23 this month combined.

Well drive slow. What's that Williams tune--"... wheels on a gravel road?" And careful backing out of that driveway!! Much love.
