Camaros, Convertibles, and Mini Vans OH MY!

Nolan LOVES cars! So when the Auto Show was in town we knew we had to go! It was a gorgeous day to head downtown for a family activity!

checking out the BIG BEAR at the Convention Center

Mallory had gone to the Chicago Auto Show and had brought Nolan an orange Hot Wheels Camaro from it. So from the second we got there Nolan was on the hunt for the orange Camaro!

Yay!!! A Camaro...but it wasn't orange!

Look at that cool car for the armed forces!

If I could have any sports car it would definitely be a Corvette!

Look at this cute load!

exploring the ins and outs of each car


A trunk is a fun play place!

Nolan thought it was so fun that some cars didn't have tops! He now thinks that we need a convertible! In our dreams Nolan!

watching the Jeeps work

Auntie's Favorite- a Jeep! She has one, but not quite this color or size!

racing & crashing remote control cars

Nolan said he was having a party in this huge van! He danced and had imaginary balloons and food!

Nolan really liked the Camaros, and convertibles, but surprisingly his very favorite car of the day was this Honda...
Mini Van!!! AHHHH! He told me that we also really need an Odyssey! Sorry Nolan, we will not make your wish come true on this one!

He thought it was super fun that he could push the buttons and open and close the sliding doors! And of course he has always wanted a T.V. in the car! Payton and Brady have small DVD screens in their Pilot and he says to me at least once a week, "Mommy can I be lucky? I want a T.V. in my car like Payton and Brady!" Poor boy! He's so neglected!

One last shot with this pretty red Camaro on the way out!

We left dreaming of fancy & fast cars, that are shiny & clean, and that most importantly, do not have goldfish crumbs and fruit snacks in the cracks of every seat! It was such a fun day out in the city!

Nolan,

You can come ride in Auntie Jill's minivan anytime! They ARE so cool, even though your mom thinks they're dorky! No TV in ours, though....but think of all the fun you and Trey would have together! This post made me miss you, buddy! Hugs!

xoxoxo, Auntie Jill
