Daddy Dressed Me!

I had a doctor's appointment this morning, and Greg was off. WhenI came home Greg had feed everybody breakfast, bathed, and dressed them. Luke's outfit looked fine, but Laura on the other hand. Well, you can see for yourself. It hurt my eyes to look at her with all the colors and patterns. But oh well, at least daddy tried. Laura didn't seem to mind at all.

Heat Wave & Haircuts

This is the face I get now anytime she sees the camera!

Our house has been a sauna the past couple of days. Our AC unit went out on Tuesday and we had to wait until Friday until a new one could be installed. I know I put up with no AC as a kid, but I just can't do it anymore. I have also realized my kids don't even want to try. I had to get box fans. They sat in front of them during the day, and at night they were blowing right on them. This is Laura sleeping in because she's laying in front of the fan (which you can't see).

Soaking up the box fan air!

Then I had to take Luke to get a haircut. My cousin Lisa normally cuts it for me (because I trust his hair in her hands). However, it was still going to be a couple weeks before I head back to Fulton, so I decided I had to get it cut here. I took him to Great Clips in Eureka (that's where Greg goes). I started to panic when I saw the amount of hair that was dropping to the ground. Overall, it looked OK.

Luke was saying "Cheese" for the camera.

Loving the Break in the Weather

Finally the weather has turned for the better. The extreme heat forced us all inside, and being inside with these two all day gets tiring. There is only so much coloring, blocks, puzzles, basketball, bowling, etc. a girl can take. Finally though we are able to go outside. We have definitely been taking advantage of Grandma's pool. It's very relaxing if only I could get Luke to stop drinking the water. We also have been walking down to the market for ice cream. Luke enjoys his free cone from the ladies. We also get to play outside on the slide and playhouse more. Luke likes to take his lunch out there and eat it. Then he jumps on his 4 wheeler and rides around the driveway. If his driving right now is any indication of what he will be like later on in life, I don't think he'll ever get a car. Overall, it's been great playing if only the weather would stay like this.

Now a Family of 5!

Yes, that title is not a misprint, and yes we are now officially insane! Our family will be expanding to 5 (6 counting Otis). This little Ross will be here beginning of February. My mom is really wanting this one to come on her birthday (Feb 4th). So far everything is good. I think all the people that read this blog probably already knew (thanks mom), but if for some reason you hadn't heard there you go.
