Look Ma, it's a minivan!

Well, we finally joined the minivan crowd over the weekend. The lease on the Envoy is up soon, and it had become increasingly clear that something was missing from our life. Specifically, sliding doors. Having done plenty of research, we headed to the Honda dealership, where Belinda was kind enough to direct us toward a fine specimen of an Odyssey.

We'll post pictures at some point. We're very happy with the seating, storage and features. Actually, it's the most feature-rich vehicle I've ever driven (not sure what this says about my automotive past). Doesn't have a touchscreen GPS or anything crazy like that, but it does have 13 cup holders and a smuggling compartment that's reminiscent of the Millennium Falcon. (Editor's note: Longtime readers will know that the goal of this blog is twofold; 1) provide real-time updates on the triplets' lives, and 2) reference the Millennium Falcon as often as possible. Done and done.) We can now fit all 3 car seats, both parents, the stroller and 1 more passenger all at once. Look out, world!

A quick note about the kids: All 3 are doing well, smiling a lot, and sleeping until at least 6ish probably every 3 out of 5 nights. Not half bad. We also think we have teeth coming in, but more conclusive proof is needed. Stay tuned.
