Preparing for New Pet

The kids have been enjoying the New Pet's carseat.

And the box it came in!

We got the new carseat in the mail a few days ago. The kids were so happy to get to open the box and play with the new carseat!
A few days later, we got a new carseat cover for Gwendolyn.
I was truly surprised and happy to see Lucas's reaction. I thought it might go over badly that we have been getting things for the new baby and Gwendolyn, but not for him (because he doeesn't need a new carseat). I couldn't have been more wrong. He was so excited for Gwendolyn and told her how nice her new carseat is :) And he was thrilled to see the new baby's carseat and talk more about her. He is thrilled that we're going to have a new baby soon. And as more and more of her things appear here, he talks more about her and gets even more excited :) He was actually hopping up and down when her crib arrived!
