Surprise!

 About a month ago, Jesse and I found a great deal on a hardly used Honda Odyssey. Since we are having another baby, we obviously have to get a bigger vehicle. I found this one online in Auburn which is a couple hours away. Jesse and I drove up there and we decided to trade in the Jeep for it. The owner of the dealership also owns a Jeep dealership so they offered us a great deal and we only had to pay an additional $4000 for the van. Because we are registering it in Idaho, there was some red tape to deal with and we weren't able to bring it home until we got everything done on our end.

I finally got everything I needed. We told the kids that we were trading in the Jeep for a van. They were excited for a new vehicle but were also a bit sad since we have loved our Jeep named "Beast" so much. We took a few pictures with the Jeep and I headed off to pick up the van. 

Little did the kids know that the real reason we were getting a van was because we had another baby coming. I came home and we made the announcement to them with a few signs on the seats.

Needless to say, they were doubly excited and I no longer have to try to hide my growing belly!
