Summertime=Blogs

Yes, the title is correct. Now that it is summer you can expect more blogs coming your way. I feel badly that people check my site so often only to be left with nothing new. Well....trust me you will be getting a lot of new stuff. We just got back from an awesome vacation to Kalamazoo, Michigan. Summer school starts tomorrow. We are about to get a bassett hound puppy. We have 2 more trips planned for August.....the blog should be red hot before long.

The first comment I wish to make and perhaps hear back about is a series of props (feel free to raise the roof) for my son Doug. This little guy was an absolute trooper on vacation. Can you picture a 1 year old riding 13 1/2 straight hours in the car? Can you picture a 1 year old skipping naps and not being a monster? Can you picture a 1 year old sleeping in a new place, in a crib that is usually only used for playing? Well, my little guy did all of that and with a smile most of the time. It was an eye-opening experience for sure. On top of all that, now that we are home he has just given up his bottle (only sippy cups allowed) and his binkie (parent code word for pacifier). I can't even begin to say how proud I am of him.

Okay....I have lots more to write about but I should save some tales. I want everyone to keep coming back. I promise that I will be adding new posts regularly.

Oh, by the way...how about those Mets? 6 players on the All-star team and they already have 49 wins. I am hopeful about October!

Wow, Doug really is a trooper, isn't he? I'm glad things went well, and that Doug is already showing himself to be a great little fellow. Big props to the Doug man!

Looking forward to more posts!

Yes, I can imagine Doug being good without naps and sleeping well in a new place and doing well on long car rides. Somehow, I can definitely picture that. :-D
