Hot Wheels

For Annie's B-day, some friends gave her her first car!

Which was so funny to me since I had just recently read an article about how these little buggies were the new "hip" thing replacing strollers.

It will also be a great alternative for the wee-one once she is too big to carry but too "cool" for a stroller.

But THE BEST part about it all was it gave me an opportunity to TOTALLY DAD OUT.

Seriously, is there anything more daddish than putting together pieces of molded plastic for your daughter? (except maybe mowing the lawn on a Saturday morning).

Visions of Christmas Eve's to come . . .

And visions of Christmas mornings . . .

Pink! And a Convertible too! 16 years from now I will frame this photo next to the one of her first actual car . . .

This is awesome, okay but seriously though....how long did it take you to put this together?? I know there's a picture of you banging your fists on the ground crying because it's just so hard! Dont lie. ;) Ha! I'll get it out of you!
