I Got a New Car!!!!!

Whoo Hoo! I'm soooo excited. We were deciding between the Acura TSX (their smallest sedan) & the Toyota Camry (which I've already had for 9 yrs!). I wasn't sure Acura would accept our lowball offer & I'd end up getting the Camry but they did. Of course, a little bit more than we offered. ;-) It's soooo worth it. It has so many fun things in it! The coolest things? When I put the car in reverse, a tv screen turns on a camera so you can watch what you're backing into. It also has a memory of whoever is driving & how far back their seat is & where they keep their mirrors. (It always drives me nuts when Jeff moves my seat fwd & changes my mirrors! lol) It's also got a navigation system & satellite radio & works on voice command. Technology is AMAZING!!! Thanks to my sweet hubby for working hard & buying it for me! Here we are:
Last Fri. I was swinging Sara upside down & when she was laughing, I saw something in her mouth. It was a new tooth! It's funny cuz it's her 2nd one over on the top. She doesn't even have her front ones yet, so Jeff & I are teasing that she's gonna look like a Jack O'Lantern. :-) I'm assuming the teething is why she's been a bit cranky & just wanting to be held. She's also getting up on all fours & rocking a bit & I swear I think she could be crawling in a few weeks.

Siena is doing great @ sitting up & doesn't scream anymore @ tummy time. She actually likes playing down there for a while with her toys. (Something I never thought I'd see.) She smiles a ton & laughs at the funniest things. I can't get over how gorgeous her eyes are getting. They're kinda hazel & she's got dark LONG lashes. So pretty.
We're leaving in the am to go visit Jeff's family for Thanksgiving. It's going to be our 2nd year without Sallie during the holidays & this year will be especially hard cuz of the girls. But we know she's there in spirit drinking lots of wine & yelling @ me for taking her picture. ;-) We'll be celebrating on Saturday with my family & I'm very much looking forward to it. Here's a couple pics from the week.

In their I Luv NY shirts that Mom & Grandma Harriet got them.

Notice Siena is all smiles?? Probably cuz she knows she's gonna eat! haha

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Love from our family to yours. Xoxo

I just can't get enough of those darling pix of the girls.
Your car is gorgeous, and I'm jealous regarding the backup screen. I want that!
Those smiles of Siena are priceless, and Sara is just a doll-baby!
