August Part 1

Well....August....lemme try to remember. MP3 is currently teething something awful, I'm slightly sleep deprived and also suffering a terrible head cold (which wouldn't be that bad but the chickenpox scars in my throat are inflamed and it is very painful to swallow) so I'm having a bit of trouble not only remembering what the hell happened in August but how to construct a sentence as well. Here goes!

We continued to play at the cottage. We love the cottage (in case you were wondering). Here we see The Kidlet and her cousins playing in the water. Notice the strange looks on their faces? Guess what they found. A big dead fish. A catfish if I remember correctly. Jeana especially looks horrified.


My kid, not surprisingly, seems unperturbed about dead things floating in the water with her. And, as usual, is being photogenic. Notice those gaps in her mouth. The gap on the left is finally closing up. The one on the right, however, has yet to have a tooth begin moving in. I keep telling her it's not coming and that she'll have a permanent "straw hole" for drinking through. She refuses to believe me. Darnit!

We had a wonderful time over at "Aunt Brubber's" house and got to see some cousins that we haven't seen in quite a while. Here is my cousin Jamie, grinnin' like a fool. Man, I've missed him. He and his wife have moved somewhere far away and strange...like Utah or something. I don't recall offhand which state it is, but it's somewhere over there.

The kidlet and her cousins had lots o' fun playing with my cousin Beth's children. Well, two of her children anyway. The other ones couldn't make it. Sydney and Tristan were wonderful with the kids!

The were even wonderful with MP3. This made me laugh - I asked them what they were doing and found out that they couldn't wait to see what his cute little toes look like! TOES! It must run in the family...I love baby toes too!

I think Beth and her kids should move up here so that I have some babysitters. Tell me Sydney wouldn't be great as a baby sitter! *squeeee*

The power of the finger!!

We also spent some time over at the Grandma and Grandpa's! Here's Victoria and Olivia with MP3. Once again, more kids who should move up here so that I have some babysitters. Why do all these great kids live downstate?

The Kidlet had much fun riding Michelle's go-cart with her.




Guess who else had much fun riding the go-cart?

Okay. August Part 1 is complete. Part 2 coming soon...I promise. But first *drumroll please* HALLOWEEN!
