More Updates

I'm getting really bad at updating.

Let's see...school started on August 11. Josh is in the 2nd grade. He had to go to school w/ his cast on for the first 2 days. He got it off on the 12th and then went back to walking w/ the walker for about a week. He's walking pretty good now - still limping some, but getting there.

Emma started speech this morning. She'll be going twice a week during the school year.

I was taking Callie to school this morning (without Emma - Phil took her to speech) and she said, "Where's my sister? I want to see my sister, Emma!". I told her where Emma was and that she would be at daycare soon. She was really cute. :)

Emma burned her fingers over the weekend. The kids were at mom & dad's while Phil & I went out to eat for our anniversary (YUM). She touched a hot pot. She had 2 little blisters on her fingers. Luckily, she's okay and the blisters are practically gone.

Phil & I went to Calhoun's for our anniversary. Some good friends of ours gave us a $50 gift card for there (in appreciation for all the work Phil has done at church lately - church database stuff). So, we had an excellent meal of prime rib. It was nice to get out alone.

Updates

I'm not very good at updating this!

The girls were funny this morning.

Callie said, "I want to be a mommy! I want to be you!" (talking to me).
Emma said, "I want to be a daddy!".

I told her she couldn't be a daddy because daddy's are boys. She repeated that bit of information.

Then Emma said, "Well, I'll be a mommy, too!". :)

School starts Monday. I can't believe it's already time! We're going to send Josh to daycare tomorrow in hopes that he'll start walking on his cast. He's pretty excited about going since Nick will be there. :) He hasn't seen him all summer.

His friend Grant came by a couple of weeks ago and played. They had the best time!!! We really need to get the 3 boys together more often.

Phil & Chuck have most of the house painted now (in 2 1/2 days). They're going to start painting the front tonight and in the morning. I imagine they'll have it done by tomorrow afternoon. They're going to do the trim after Chuck gets back from a business trip.

It's amazing how quickly a house can be painted when you just do it!!
