My New Mommy Mobile!


I kinda love it! Correction, I really love it!!

This is our brand new 2009 Subaru Outback. It's got a lot more power than my baby Geo Prizm. So much so that I was speeding along I-35 on the way home without realizing it. In my Geo, I didn't really need to look at the speedometer. I could pretty much tell how fast I was going by the sounds of the groaning motor. Not so much with this car.

I'm also amazed by all the stuff... When I got the Geo back in 1997, nothing came standard, except maybe power steering. Air conditioning was an add-on. With the Subaru, I get power locks and windows - what a concept- and cruise control, an alarm system, CD player, Ipod jack, what else... I don't even know. I'm drunk with the add-ons. :)

Poor Greg is so very, very jealous because this is primarily my car since I'll be with the boys for a while. But he's promised to pay me back one day by buying himself a super-sweet midlife-crisis car. I don't think he's joking.

Anyway, we both love it, and I can already tell life will be much easier with this car once those two little babes are here. Hallelujah for that!

OH!! You took MY suggestion and got the Outback. Awesome. You will love it forever. Of course, I office in mine, so there's no room for anyone else, but I promise to clean it when I come see you - well, at least the front seat. I have to have somewhere to put all my roadie things.
