Mini-Van

Well, so I have been suckered in. We are looking for a Minivan. After taking a trip to Southern IN with all 4 of us in the Mercedes, I decided that we would all be happier in a minivan. Not that the Mercedes isn't great but Jim had just gotten finished working the midnight shift so he was trying to sleep on the way down. Well, he practically had to sleep sitting upright because of the car seats. The car seats are so big that you can't recline very far if you are sitting in front of them. Then there was a space issue. When it is just me and the kids, the Mercedes is great but had that extra person and all of a sudden I can't reach anything when I need to hand the kids something. So blah blah blah, we are looking for minivans.

Here is the minivan story. We were test driving a Toyota Sienna - brand new, fully loaded. It is a very nice (an expensive) van. We were only test driving it to see if we liked it and to see if we really needed all of those features. Anyway, while we are in this van (which has less than 20 miles on it), Sophia THROWS UP EVERYWHERE!! Not just a small amount either. It went all down the front of her dress, all over her car seat, and all on the seat and floor of the new minivan. What a place to throw up! The salesman was very nice but I am sure he was wishing he hadn't come up to help us. Needless to say, we are not going to buy that exact one. I think we will choose a different one.
