The Love Bug

If Daddy were to ever have a special car, it wouldn't be a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. It would be a Love Bug. It would have to be a 1963 Volkswagen Beetle with the "53" racing decal on it, and the red and blue racing stripes too. It would be so cool to ride around in a Herbie car. Tonight before bedtime, Madison was wearing her Herbie pajamas (that Mommy got a few years ago from Hannah as hand-me-downs). Never one to miss out on an opportunity, Daddy brought out her miniature Herbie toy to roll around on the floor for a few photos. This little toy has a revving engine and squealing tires, and as you can see, Madison enjoys rolling it across the floor at Daddy. Lots of giggles tonight before bed.

Mommy and Daddy have seen Herbie at Planet Hollywood, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and even the All Star Movies Resort. We also have all six of the Herbie movies (yes, there's a sixth movie, but that's for real Herbie fans), but we haven't watched any with Madison yet. Daddy was thinking that Madison might not "get it" yet, although Mommy suggested she might find the bits where Herbie squirts the bad guys with oil funny. We'll probably give it a try soon. Why not?

Although all the movies are currently over at the new house. That's where Mommy and Madison spent a large portion of the day today, waiting for the new refrigerator to arrive. When it did, Mommy called up Daddy at work like a proud parent. "It's here," she beamed. She was so proud of the new refrigerator, all three of us went to the new house tonight to check it out. Yes, it's a pretty decent refrigerator. As far as refrigerators go. At least this one isn't just a box. It has curved doors, which make it look more elegant. Or, at least as "elegant" as a refrigerator can get. It's nice, but we still have a few things to hook up with it - such as the water hose for the ice maker and water dispenser. Can't wait for that.

Tonight, Ye-Ye and Nana came over for a big dinner on the deck that Mommy cooked up. It was splendid: potato salad, corn on the cob, hot dogs on the grill, watermelon and more. It was as Madison is learning to say: "delicious!"
