For Him -OR- For Her

A couple of weeks ago we were with some friends and one of the kids had a small jeep for kids to ride in. Isabella was a little apprehensive about the whole thing but Steve became dead set on getting her one. I thought it might be a good idea to wait until she was a little bigger but the decision of dad was already made. So, then came the research of all the little cars out there. We settled on the Jeep for Steve, pink for Isabella, and the barbie one for me because we didn't have to put the barbie stickers on. I am not a fan of barbie. Next we took about 1 1/2 hours putting it together and then the long hard wait for Steve on the battery charging 24 to 36 hours. Steve could hardly stand waiting for the exciting moment of putting Isabella in her Jeep and hopefully watching her smile from ear to ear all over the yard, and wanting more and more of this fun car.
Well the time came and Isabella like getting in the Jeep but not going anywhere in fact the motion scared her to death. It wasn't until we got her cousin Kelsey to drive the Jeep would she even get anywhere near the thought of sitting in it as it ran. Steve's hopes were dashed. "How could she not love this thing?" is what he kept saying over and over again.
The funniest thing about it all was as Kelsey and Isabella were riding around the front wheel feel off. Phewwwwweeee!! We can take this thing back and not even feel the least bad about it. So back to the store are Non-Barbie pink Jeep went and I think it will be a while before Steve gets the bug to try again. Gotta Love it!!

HOW COULD SHE NOT??!!?! That is the coolest ever! We have learned the hard way that things we think Luc will love don't always pan out. That is why we now try EVERYTHING in the store first! I love the pic of her fixing it. She is so so cute!
