Last Days of Summer Break

It's winding down.  My kids might be sick of me and each other.  There has been a lot more fighting and screaming around here lately.

Out to lunch with Mom

Watching "Shaun the Sheep" in the new, comfy and reclining seats at the Paragon

At the park

Pete the Cat story-time at the Library

Matchy Matcherson

"Mom!  Look!  I matched myself!......Oh look!  I even match my gun!"
Clearly he gets his style sense from his dad!

Oh, Pickles!

We canned today- 8 spicy dill and 42 dill.

Charlie: Can I try one?
Me: No, not yet
Nick: Not until Christmas!

An hour later...
Charlie:  Now can I try one?
Me: Is it Christmas yet?
Charlie: (head down) No...

Luckily we have a few jars left from last year.

Still my baby girl

I've been cleaning, packing and purging so hopefully the move will be smooth when we get there.  Today I found some old bottles.  Claire was all over it.  She grabbed a bottle, went to the closet and asked for her boppy pillow, got a blanket and played baby while I sadly got rid of all the baby stuff in her room.

New Gear

Charlie got some new hearing aid parts today.  He chose a magenta hook and a clear ear mold with pink "sprinkles" to go with his purple hearing aid.  Lookin' good!

Now, if only they made listening aids...


Tuesday's

The kids look forward to spending Tuesday's out at the farm with Rosemary, Jarrett and Taylor.  We got to swim in the new pool the last two times.  Lucky us!

At the Lake

Nick was gone for a night last week so the kids and I went to hang out with Maddi and Stacy at the lake.

Camping

We've been pretty busy so this was only our second time at the camper this year.

House Update

We went to look at the house last night.  We went inside for the first time.  Things are moving along.  Tomorrow is the walk-through with the electrician and our closing date is only a month and a half away!
