Speaking of Grandpa Mark, today is his birthday. Happy Birthday, Mark!
Other than that, not much new around here. We got a firepit last week so Jer and I have been having nightly campfires. Emily got to roast her first marshmallow the other night (well, mom roasted it and she ate it, and loved it). Jer has still been golfing a little, not as much as before, but trying to take advantage of the end of the golf season. I am not ready for summer to be over yet; it was so late to begin with, and what will we do when we can't take our daily trips to the park? We'll have to find some more indoor activities when it gets cold; any suggestions?
This weekend is scrapbooking at church, yea! We'll see if I make it until midnight tonight. Last night the girls went to bed at 5:30 and Jer and I at 8:40. Sad, I know. We weren't feeling the best, though, especially Jeremy and I think Emily.
Let's see, what have the girls been up to. Bri has been wanting to try a spoon. That's a hard one for mom to want to deal with! What a mess. This morning she had some applesauce. I handed the spoon to her right hand, and she switched it to her left. That's the hand she's been using, we'll see if it lasts. 3/4 of the way through her applesauce she switched to her right, so maybe she'll be ambidextrous. I have no idea if I even spelled that right.
Emily. . . she's just been kind of whiny this week. I think she might have a tinge of a sickness, or maybe just being 2. So to help that we went to the park for 2 hours with Laurie and girls in the morning, then a different park for an hour that afternoon.
Well, that's about it. Sorry if I bored you. Hey, at least it's something!

Emily's hair has gotten so long! It's weird to hear you talk about the end of summer when it is still in the 90's here. We actually had a nice day yesterday afternoon when we could go for a walk. Our nice days are just starting and yours are ending.
Maybe she'll end up being a lefty! I'm married to one, but neither of our children are. I remember our pediatrician at one point telling me when kids start showing a preference because I was really curious about whether Holly would be a lefty, but I can't remember what he said. I know he mentioned they use both hands for awhile, which obviously you're seeing. Anyway, let us know if she does end up being a lefty!
We have plenty of warm weather down here! Why don't we do a house swap some weekend - we're sick of summer!
Sounds good to me, I'll gladly trade you for some warmer weather! It's about 50 degrees here right now. We did have a neat rainbow tonight, though!
Last winter we took Alex and Abby to the YMCA quite a bit. We let them swim a couple of times a week and they also played in the kids gym when I worked out. It's a nice break in their day and mine in the winter. There are also some really nice indoor parks you can take them to. You can check them out on http://www.twincitiesmom.com/parks-playareas.html
It's a pretty neat website.
