Rambling Update -- Posted by Amy

So time between posts is lengthy, but that just means we're busy. We stimulated Toy 'R Us on Friday, Costco on Saturday, and then Target and the grocery store on Sunday. Phew! That's a lot of shopping. Hannah should be pretty well set on shorts and T-shirts and pajamas. She's also got a new Thomas the Tank Engine jack-in-the-box. She's obsessed with Sir Toppam Hat popping out but is afraid to turn the crank because he scares her when he jumps out. What to do? What else? Oh, our front yard looks better, thanks to Brad. Not great, yet, but better. We'll need to cut down that last tree and have the mulberry stump taken out. Then comes the new sprinkler system that we'll need to save for. Maybe we should just buy some green spray paint. . . Work is hectic for Brad and just work for me. Petey stinks again after his bath yesterday, so that's his news. I don't know what he could have found in the back yard to roll in but it stinks like nothing I've ever smelled before. Ah, we do love him, though. Brad has Hannah singing the Ghostbusters song. It's cute. She also sings Mama Mia by Abba. We'll blame that one on the teachers at day-care. Well, Brad and I are going to watch Canon Ball Run. Good night!
