Lots to say!


Wow - There's been a lot happen since last I posted. We went on an awesome trip to Puerto Rico, had 3 weeks of marching band camps, one week of workdays, and now will be welcoming the students back tomorrow. WHEW!

Kiersten has 5 teeth now, is starting to take a few steps at a time, when she doesn't get so hyped up that she falls. lol She's still on the small side, but that's a good thing, since she's not walking yet and we have to carry her most of the time from place to place in the house!

Mom is now teaching in Harnett County again, at Triton - my old high school! She's not here during the week, so we only get her on the weekends. During the week, she's staying at Elsa's. Lots of catching up to do when she's here! Luckily this coming weekend is Labor Day weekend (not to mention payday weekend), so we get her one more day.

BIG EVENT: Kiersten will be turning a year old in 2 weeks!! WOW!!!! We're having a small get-together, with our moms, Andrew (hopefully), Kathryn & Chris, Elsa, grandma & Jason (maybe). Her biggest gift will be her convertible car seat. Thankfully, this one will last longer than a year - probably 3. The grandparents are helping to pay for it, so we can make sure she has the safest, cushiest one. Of course, we'll have some toys and books, and maybe some more clothes, for her. We also bought a small tin to make a little cake just for her to demolish. Chocolate/chocolate all the way!
