Tuesdays and Thursdays and A New Car

Every Tuesday and Thursday we always go on a walk in the neighborhood because our VERY energetic furry family member Aggie HAS to go on a walk otherwise he gets restless and starts getting into things he shouldn't be in. Dalton rides in his little red wagon that he got for his birthday a couple of months ago and I pull him while Daddy fights with the monster, I'm just kidding Aggie is getting WAY better about walking on a leash. I want him to be perfect before Christmas because by then he will be HUGE and he will be dragging me down the road if he doesn't know how to heel. Luckily, he's been a really easy dog to train, knock on wood.
As you can see behind Dalton and I Aggie is trying to dig up our lava rocks bordering our deck before we went walking one night. After the walk, like always when we come back, he was out cold on the tile.
Dalton was in a crabby mood before the walk too ^ but when we got back he was in a much better mood (below) He just loves being outside I think if I let him he would live outside.
While we were walking, a dad was jogging with his little boy in one of those jogging strollers and I said to Chantz wow we need one of those for Dalton so we can start RUNNING with Aggie :) and we both looked back and this is what we saw
It was hilarious. I had to take a picture because he looks so relaxed with his feet up on his cup holders and his face says it all. He is giving us the look of please don't make me go in one of those I don't want to I like this wagon instead. I can't wait to decorate his wagon for halloween to drag him around while trick or treating. I want to put some hay in there and hopefully it's cold like it was last year so I can put his cute halloween fleece blanket that I made him in there with him. I'll show you the blanket I made when it gets closer to halloween and how easy they are to make.

Ok so I had told you all the trouble that my car has been giving me lately and how much it is making me angry. I love that car when I first bought it and it was my dream car, but now that I have Dalton and huge Aggie it's not very practical for our family. So, we set out to find me a new one a couple of weekends ago, actually it was labor day weekend to be exact. We went to carmax because I had seen this practically new Jeep Patriot there and I was in love with the pictures online. Well we got there and when we sat in it I almost threw up on myself. No offense to any of you that drive them but I get VERY chlostrophobic in dodge nitros and I sat in a Jeep Patriot and Jeep Comander and it was the same way. I think it's the very vertical windshield and dashboard. I am used to a car with a leaned slanted very cozy comfortable feel not sit upright. My friend Audra drives a dodge nitro and the one time I rode in it she had to pull over and I threw up, that's how car sick I got it in. So, we didn't get it or anything else on the lot because I just didn't see anything I liked. Hopefully the right car will come and find me. Chantz was a little aggrevated that we drove all the way out there and then as soon as we got there I was like no I don't like it, ha! He said that before we go get me a new car I need to go test drive every car that is out there and decide which one I want so we only have to go and do the dealing and leave not sit there and decide which one I want or what I want it in or what color or anything. It was well worth going out there though because Dalton had a blast.

We were letting him "test drive" all the cars that were on the show room floor. Of course he threw a fit when we made him get out.

Here is us sitting together and him giving his whatever look because we wouldn't let him get down and run around.
I think this picture is hilarious because he looks like he's saying hmmmm should I just jump off Daddy and run over there even though they told me no. He is too much, ha!!!!
