Hot Hot Hot

Well it sure is hot these last few weeks! I can officially say I am looking forward to fall now. We are doing good. Been pretty busy with normal stuff. J has been pretty busy working and D with keeping up with Pierce and house things. Some things that have been going on - Pierce ate a pickle for the first time - seemed to like it. Pierce has really enjoyed climbing up and around playground equipment and the sliding down with D. He did get bit by some fire ants for the first time just last Friday. Boy they got him good. After they bit him, he doesn't even seem phased by it or bothers the bumps. He is teething again this last week and just yesterday we can see the teeth about to push through. Poor little guy - definitely not fun - thankfully we don't remember these days later on in life. We did get his year pictures done at Sears. Boy it was a lot of work this time now that he is mobile! He wanted to move, walk, grab things. And he didn't really want to smile until they pulled out a nice shiny red car, but by the time they got to the camera - not a lot of smiles-was too serious playing with the car. We got some memorable photos though. That really is about it. Hope everyone else is staying cool - or trying to. Soon fall will be here!
