It's not a minivan, but...

As per the established pre-requisites for becoming a good upstanding suburbanite, the SUV has been purchased! We traded in the little zoom zoom yesterday for a big pimping 2009 Honda CR-V! I absolutely love it! It's gorgeous and I think we got a really great deal on it- including a very nice trade-in value for the Mazda. Brad was Mr. Suave when it came to the negotiations and, although I was pretty much just a brat throughout the entire process (chalk it up to pregnancy mood swings*?), we walked away with EXACTLY what we wanted. Yay new car.

(*Note to self: In 62 days, 'pregnancy mood swings' go back to just straight up being a bitch. Perhaps the 'Year of Amy to-do' should also include something about being nice to the nice people around me. hmm..)
