The time has come...to sell the Mazda 626.
It's been good to us. It got Matt through PT school and beyond! But it has not been great for Matt's new job of traveling 50 plus miles everyday to see his homecare patients. Thankfully, God granted us some more time to find the right vehicle for our next stage of life (parents of a baby) by providing a company vehicle at the end of July. It was such a blessing as we were not finding the car we were looking for and didn't want to rush into something we didn't really want. Here is his company car.
So Matt is listing his Mazda to sell because this past Monday we finally found our baby mobile! We bought a 2006 Rav4 with less than 12K miles. It was definitely the biggest purchase we have made yet as a married couple and we are happy with our decision. Writing the check didn't even hurt!
Stroller fits in the back with room to spare!
And a feature we loved...the extra storage underneath. There is even another opening behind this one, as well as storage compartments on each side in the back. This is really important to us with living in an apartment because space is VERY limited! A garage or basement would be nice right now...especially with all of the baby gear coming into our home :)
All ready for the hospital trip!

Matt's 27th Birthday
We celebrated Matt's 27th this week! He was hoping for a the baby to arrive on his big day...but the baby had other plans. We are still not due for another week yet! On Tuesday morning Matt opened up his gift from his parents before going to work.
Reading their card.
Nero 10 video editing software! Nice!
This is perfect because we just purchased the Canon Rebel T2i-an SLR camera that also takes HD video. This was a Matt's Birthday/4th Anniversary/New baby gift to ourselves! The software will be great for editing videos of the new baby!
That night we met a few other couples for Matt's birthday dinner at Champs.
Kyle told the waitress it was Matt's birthday and this is what she came out with!
Enough for EVERYONE to share! Happy Birthday, Babe!

July 4th Weekend in Indiana
Matt and I went back to Indianapolis for July 4th to see his family. I was 32 weeks along at the time. Here are some pictures from the event!
Friday night, we went to see Jessie and Adam. Jessie took maternity pictures for us before Adam got home from work. The girls, Noah and Jocelyn came with us for the shoot. ADORABLE. They really are. And I didn't take one picture! But here is Jessie and I:
And here are a few of the pictures Jessie took. If you would like to see more, go to Jessie's photography blog. Go to "Categories", then "Portrait", then "Maternity". You will find us there!
Picnic at the IMA on Saturday
Nicole & Matt spying at the people living on the water.
Sunday at the Dodgens:
Chloe doing a dance routine for us!
Chloe spitting water on my legs!
Crazy watermelon game!'
Taylor and Rachel-newlyweds!
A tuckered out Sonny
Matt and the kiddos
Love these kids...and their parents. So glad we got to spend the day with this family!
And it was great to spend a few days with Dad & Mom Witt and the the girls. The next time we see them...there will be 3 of us!
