Packed and Ready

My hospital bag is ready, I have newborn boy clothes thanks to friends and family, and the car seat is installed. Now if I could just get baby David to begin his arrival after a good night's sleep, maybe a week or so before his due date...

Moving Day

On Wednesday, July 28, we will be moving out of our home in Mentor where David and Jeff grew up. Packing and disposing of things have brought back many wonderful memories. It is hard to believe that we lived in this home for 20 years.

Today, I prepared the "pool shot" for disposal. We played hours upon hours of no rules water hoops for so many years. We had so much fun swimming and horsing around in the pool.

Ginger especially loved to be with us. She would get so riled up, both from our teasing her and our playing around. Remember how she would try to nip our suits when we would go down the slide? Or the treats put at the edge of the diving board?

We will miss this home but it is time to move on. The new condo will fit our life style so much more.

Pool Days

Who needs to join a big pool when you've got a glam baby blowup pool like this to cool off in 100 degree weather? We're pretty much in it every day, a front yard fixture in our neighborhood that you can expect to see if you drive by. Winter blizzards followed up by a sweltering hot summer...Virginia, where is your temperate nature?
