My dad visited last week and brought with him the one of the more remarkable gifts that the girls have received to date. It's a pedal car version of a 1932 Ford Roadster compelete with authentic hood louvers, real rubber tires, a working steering wheel and all the bells and whistles. It's pretty true to the original too (see photo below).
We unpacked it and put it together while the girls were at the park with Kristin. That gave us the opportunity to stage things for maximum impact. When they came into the room, we had a Price Is Right moment, like when they lift the curtain on... "A NEW CAR!"
Both girls really enjoyed it, although it is further evidence (as if any was needed) that our current apartment is way too small for our family.
