Used Car Obsession

Exactly two weeks have passed since a minor rear-ending incident (my doing) on a 128 on-ramp ended the useful life of my old Mazda. Since then, we've been spending obsessive amounts of time on websites like Craig's List, Carfax, Edmund's, and Blue Book, and just as our search began to invade our dreams the past few nights, we decided to pull the trigger on a 2000 volvo v40. I'm not sure what it says about where we are in life that we will now own two volvo station wagons, but for now, we are simply glad that we will be capable of transporting ourselves in more than one direction at a time.

The resemblance is scary.

Papparazzi

Only 9 months old and Claire is already sick of having a camera in her face all of the time. We only have ourselves to blame.

Tuck's Point

Though it's hard to believe this morning, as icy rain pours down on several inches of snow, last weekend and this past week gave us a taste of spring -- one that we will attempt to recall as we shovel and skate our way through THIS weekend. Tuck's Point is near Meg's school, and we'll often go up there, park at landmark, and take a run along the water. The pay-off to Claire for riding in the babyjogger is some time on the swings... One of her favorite activities these days.
