No baby news, my friends

Ah...last time I checked the blog, I was kinda hoping someone had hi-jacked it and added some funny and interesting stories. Anyway, here is our latest.....this is the front of the house. (And that is Jim and Pat Rufener - who is doing the electrical work.) I'm sorry for them that it's not a great posed photo, but I'm glad that I have at least one picture of them so far (since I'm trying to get pictures of everything as we go, and already I missed getting a picture of Glen and Lois when they were here.....except for one random orchard tour photo, below...)

This is true, the little bird got that hunk of Velveeta out of the fridge (I had the door open), she opened the cheese herself (left the packaging in a messy heap on the floor), climbed up on the couch and was so happy eating it.
These pictures don't quite capture the great joy she had in doing this. Or the giant mess she made smearing it on the couch.
Busy at work.
This is my only sleeping picture this time. I've never let her sleep with a bottle before. It was kinda funny to me though, she was asleep, but would not let go of the bottle.

Another new thing for Summer (the cover hater), I was doing laundry....she was busy undoing it, but she tucked herself in here. Still doesn't like blankets when we put them on her.

I believe this was a total punt on my behalf.

Fine, baby, if you want to eat cat food, have at it.

At least the ladies are sharing and playing nicely together.

Another favorite hobby.

So far, has only fallen off the edge of the couch once.

Does this look dangerous?

Theory: One day Summer will fall off of here.

My response:

If it is before 9 am: devasted, feel guilty, rush to the emergency room

If it is between 9 and 3 pm: feel guilty, rock Summer, put ice on her ouchies, tell her it will be okay

If it is after 3 pm: look up from across the room, sigh heavily, say "looks like you got what was coming....I've only pulled you off of there 467 times today"

For all the pictures I take of these two, you'd think I'd have some brilliant ones, but somehow they are always distracted with stuff in the distance, etc.

I think Summer looks really cute though. Her wild hair has grown a lot.

Playing at the Brummitts.

What a sweet thing!

Another favorite hobby - put on big peoples' shoes.

Here we are on a tour of the Brummitt's pecan orchard. These folks were distracted with football and shoes.

Yep, they are missing some important Texas history and interesting pecan facts.

I am pretty much a pecan expert now. :)

Here's David telling tall tales.

And this is our only picture of Glen and Lois and Blake and Joelle. (Otherwise, I definitely would have deleted it. Pregnancy = not glamorous.)

View of house from the road.

Although more progress has already been made.

By the end of tomorrow, the roof (plywood and stuff) should be done.

Thanks to the hard work and help from Summer.

(Working so hard her little face is all red.)
