I think I need a race car

By now, most of you know that Erich thinks he is a race car driver. He takes his car out to the track every week or so to "race" it. It has to be fast and often times he is working on stuff to make it faster. Because of this, his car is louder than the normal car. While slightly obnoxious, I always know when Erich is almost home. Laney now recognizes that noise as well. This afternoon she was playing with some toys when Erich was pulling into the driveway. She gleefully started to flap her arms and say "daddy". When the car turned off, she immediately started looking around for him, waiting for him to come inside. I think I need a car with a distinguishable sound. Then maybe she will start to say mommy and anxiously await my return as well.

That is so cute! Our dog is like that, she can hear the truck coming from down the street before we even see it coming! Or if she's inside she will then get all excited and sit by the door.

That's funny, I could definately see you in a race car Mandy, kind of a whole Danika Patrick kind of thing. You should start growing your hair out now, because you really need the whole hair toss effect when you take your helmet off!
