Ok, more catching up to do...
This, my friends, is a Barbie Jeep. It's all awash in pink, purple, and lime green. It's quite the ride, if you ask me. It also comes standard with a real working radio!
Well, the girls didn't know what to think the next day when they got to ride in it. Yes, the NEXT day because the stinkin' battery takes 16 some hours to charge! How horrible for a parent, I mean kid to have to wait all that time!!!
So we rolled it out into the yard, put the girls in, explained how it worked, blah, blah, blah. On to the cuteness...
Aren't they stylin' in their new set of wheels? This, by the way, is how you will almost always see the girls sitting. Laney prefers for Abby to drive. Why? I'm totally unsure because THIS is how Abby drives...
She ALWAYS gets distracted and doesn't pay attention to where she's going!
OR
Drives while having a death grip on the windshield...NOT the wheel...
OR
She is playing with the radio. (Which is pretty cool by the way) But look, Laney is totally unfazed! Do you want to know why Laney is totally cool with her sister's crazy driving habits? It's because she's figured out how to push the gas herself...from the passenger's seat. She lets Abby FEEL like she's in control, all the while, knowing she can take her own foot off the gas pedal to avoid certain danger! HA!
Hindsight? The wheel is too stiff for them to turn, so we look quite comical chasing them down as they try to maneuver it. Maybe we should have waited.
Tony's conclusion?
"That was the most expensive radio I have ever purchased."

So cute!! The great thing about the Barbie jeep is that it keeps the attention of 2-year olds for longer than 5 minutes! Love the pictures. It looks like they are having tons of fun with it.

Watch out flowerbeds, here we come!!!
How cute are they! Glad things are going well, they are constantly changing, I can tell them apart a little better each time I see them.
Just think, two teenage girl drivers in about 13 years (OH! NO!)

Hi Rett & Tony! I've enjoyed reading about your summer vacation and seeing the pictures. I love that jeep! Next weekend is Alana's birthday. I haven't seen her in awhile. It's so cool to see all the Olympic coverage on TV. I was watching Matt Lauer at the Great Wall and The Forbidden City and it made me wanna go back!!
