God is so good!!

So we finally traded in the volvo and get an Envoy XUV. It is the SUV with the retractable roof that makes a truck bed in the back. I absolutely love it. Don't get me wrong I loved the volvo too, but it was just too small for our needs. We finally agreed on this vehicle after hours of wandering around in the hot sun on City Auto's lot. This is the second vehicle we have purchased from there and will be going back when the time comes for a new one. They people there are great and they have the best prices and selection in town. We had been searching for a new vehicle for a while now. We had just about given up hope when I found our new XUV. We checked it over and took it for a test drive. Everything seemed to be great except for one thing, Steve had found a F150 that he wanted. We kept talking over and still could not decide. I told him I had a bad feeling about the truck (it was more mileage than we were looking for and a few things needed to be fixed). He agreed with me and we bought the Envoy. I couldn't help but know that God had it planned from the beginning for us to find that vehicle. It was everything that we were looking for and in our price range. I know God was looking out for us that day. I am so thankful that God is there to point us in the right direction. All we have to do is turn it over to him.

As for Lauren, she just cut another tooth this week and is about to cut another one. That will make 6 total so far. She is growing so fast. It seems like yesterday that she was born. Lauren is such a water baby. She loves being in the pool or even the bathtub for that matter. I went to start her bath water last night and she ran in the bathroom and hugged me as tight as she could. She knew exactly what she was about to get to do. I think she could play in there for hours if the water wouldn't get too cold. As far as the pool goes, she sits on the steps and plays with her toys for as long as we will let her stay outside. I have never seen a child love to be outdoors as much as she does. That is why we spend most of our time at either my mom's back porch or my dad's.

Steve had a good Father's Day. We went to church and then spent the afternoon with my dad at his pool.

We are loving every minute of being parents and really want to have more children in the future. I will never be able to explain to anyone how you can love someone that much that you just met. All I can say is you have to experience it for yourself. That kind of love can only be from God. Thank you God!!
