A List
- Steven is 6 months old. He weighs 19lbs 7oz and is 28 1/2 inches long. He has 2 teeth and is VERY verbal. He lets it be known he is around.
- I donated my hair to Locks of Love.
- Next week is a week of mostly dental appts. Gracie is having a baby tooth extracted before it causes harm to a permanent tooth. I have to have a crown. Colby is having 3 wisdom teeth out. Yayyy us?!? :-s
- The following week is Back To School week. The kids are ready to get back to school and have time with friends. They are currently bored of reading, swimming, bike riding, movie watching and the like.
- I am making a trip to Georgia at the beginning of September. My aunt will be home from Washington and I want to see her. This will be Steven's first trip to Georgia. I am hoping he will travel well. Colby is so excited to be going back home. Gracie is just happy she will be seeing my mother.
- The heat has wrecked my pool chemical balance.
- Fall is in the air. The leaves are beginning to drop from the trees. Some leaves are already turning. The nights are getting cooler. There is something in the air. I can smell it. Fall is close at hand.
- The countertop for my island came in this week. I will have new photos of the kitchen soon.
- I am at a brisk pace trying to get alot of small chores completed before the end of next week.
- J. goes back to her mother's next weekend. Her six weeks with us will be over. She is ready to go back. Steve gets depressed about it but like I tell him every summer, she is ready to go home, she is excited and happy, he should be, too. The only reason to be depressed would be if he had to send her back crying and upset wanting to stay here, which is not the case.
- The damsons are ripening!
- Pumpkins and watermelons are growing.
- I want to plant collards and turnips as well as other fall crops VERY soon.
- I have had to close the comments on MANY past posts because of spam. I am sick of some of the disgusting things that get spam linked! Who are these sickos?

That baby ets cuter everytime you post a photo!
Sorry about the spam. Can you do comment verification? Blogger has that, which takes care of most spam.
Tell Steven I said you are right about his daughter. If she is excited and happy to be going back to her mom - he should be happy about that.
We have missed your posts, Angie.

P.S. What lovely, long fingers your boy has. My mom used to say that was a mark of good breeding. I don't know if she was right or not, but she bred in me a love of nice hands.

I wish nights were getting cooler here. I can't wait till October for that first cold front...
