Car Shopping

Today we went shopping for a new car for Ryan. We decided to leave our Honda Accord we'd driven since before Braden was born in Ohio. Because this was a momentous occasion, we all decided to tag along in case our opinion was needed. Braden and Emmry were perfectly happy. They cared little about the car, but as we did not yet have cable and they had been deprived of television for a week, they were more than happy to watch cartoons in the children's lobby. Unfortunately, the babies could not be so easily entertained. After an hour of coloring, taking walks through the show room, and playing in the drinking fountain, they decided the dealership was boring and thought they'd spice things up a bit. The shirts were the first to go. I fought them at first, but seeing I was outnumbered, decided a shirtless baby could be forgiven. But when the pants started coming off, I decided an unclothed baby could not. Thankfully, as we were on our way out, Ryan was on his way in. I don't know if it was the look in my eye or the two naked babies I was dragging, but somehow he got the picture that we were at the end of our car shopping experience for today.
