Another addition to the Fam

Erik and I have been married for a little over a year now, as you know.  For a few months we have been feeling like something is missing from our lives.  So around Christmas time, we had Douglas.  He was the best thing that ever happened to us, we loved him as our own (a tree? yes a tree).

Remember him? It was a bit of a sad day when we had to get rid of him.  That space in our house was hard to fill.


Now that Miss Ruby has been born we have been so baby hungry! ( well, I have been baby hungry).  I have been doing the best I can to convince Erik it's our time to have a baby (he knows me well enough to know it's not).  So instead of getting a pregnant belly, Erik bought me this:


Isn't she wonderful! I bet you all thought I was pregnant didn't you?? Well not yet, as much as I would like to be Erik's mustache needs to be gone before we start any of that business (otherwise he'll look even more like a 70's porn star/rapist).  We have shared the same car the whole time we were engaged and the past year we have been married. Its been fun because we go everywhere together, but then it has been HORRIBLE because I was the one who always had to bum rides off of family members and friends.  I know they are just as excited that I got a car as I am.  So no, I am not pregnant and we are not having a baby. Instead I have a car!  We named her Ray. Obviously she's a girl but Ray just seemed to fit her. And she's all mine! (now im curious, how many people thought i was preggo?)

If you're going to name her Rae then spell it with an "e" on the end. It's more girly that way.
PS-you know what I would do to Erik if you were pregnant, don't you???
