New Mommy-mobile

The relationship with our beloved 2003 Chevy Trailblazer has come to an end. The Trailblazer was our first big purchase together just a few months after Blake and I got married. We bought it from Blake's sister's mother-in-law and he drove it back and forth to work in San Antonio while I drove Blake's gas-guzzling truck. As Greyson grew out of his infant carseat and loading/unloading him into the back of our lifted extended cab truck became difficult, we sold the truck, bought Blake a commuter car and the Trailblazer became my car. We brought our two babies home from the hospital, moved into our first house and put a lot of miles, memories and Goldfish crumbs in that car, but after a few consecutive trips to the mechanic shop and a little more work from Blake, it was time to say goodbye. We missed having a truck, so we knew our next family vehicle would be a 4-door truck. Blake searched for several weeks for the perfect truck that met all his specifications and we found our new 2015 GMC Sierra Denali 2500 HD just as the Trailblazer was limping on its last leg. My first time parking it proved that it will take me a while to get used to driving a truck again, but so far we're loving it! Greyson repetitively said "I wuuuuvv it" the day we bought it and calls it his Monster truck. Let's hope he still loves it in 13 years. ;)
