August...already?!?
Where does the summer go?!? I had delusions that not working full-time would mean that the summer would mosey on by...but, alas, no such luck! We have been busy traveling - first to southern California for a week at the beach and now Madeleine and I are in St. Louis because my best friend, Susan, just had her baby on Thursday. We squeezed a visit with my mom in there and we are getting ready to celebrate Bryan's 30th next weekend.
We have a ton of pictures (most on my sister's new camera - send some our way, Alli!) but no time to post. Even if we wanted to, we could because our computer just crashed. The good news is that Bryan finally realized it's a piece of crap and agreed that we "needed" this.
Even better news, today was "sales tax holiday" in Missouri so I only paid 1.5% sales tax instead of the 10 or 11% we would have paid in Chicago...leaving just enough left over for an i-phone. Happy birthday to me! I mean to Bryan.... :)

As for the grandparents' Maddie update - she now has two teeth coming in, has become a pro at feeding herself Cheerios, says uh-oh and mama with intention, is still working on crawling but prefers to lay on her tummy and pivot 360 degrees over and over again, and she continues to be the best baby ever (she and I even slept at the hospital with Susan and Kane last night)!
