Weekend fun

This weekend we went to the parent's homestead in Allendale. Sydney had a grand ole time with Ya-ya and Pop-pop. I gave a talk on commitment, and Jesse got heat stroke on the roof. Installing an antenna in 104 degree weather isn't such a good idea! But you can't tell him anything. Beka's Grad party went off without a hitch (after the hundred trips to the store) and Bug got in a pool and swam by herself for the first time! Of course she was buoyed up with a floating swimsuit and a baby-sized ring, but she just kicked her way all over that pool, with mommy, daddy, meme or one of the aunts never more than three inches away (i'm not paranoid at all). Now we're home and resting up for the holiday. I don't think we'll be doing more than sparklers, if that. Sydney also cut another tooth. I think they're comming in one by one just to make her miserable all the time. Poor baby, I'll be glad when they're all in. Lately her favorite pastime is oatmeal projectile cause it's still warm, she's leaning toward only eating cold things, cause it numbs her mouth. I've got her on everything I dare to give her. Rotating between tylenol and motrin while she has a slight fever, and teething tablets and not limiting her popcicles It's all I can do to keep her comfortable and distracted. At the rate her teeth are comming in, it'll all be over soon. Thank Goodness!

Hope that antenna was worth the effort, since everything is digital now!
Poor Sydney! Leah's teeth were the same, slow and painful. Popsicles are perfect for teeth and summer heat! Toss one to Jesse next time he's on a rooftop.
We miss you guys!
