The best of random stuff from the last few months
I think these two are waiting for me to come back home. Wiley tends to gravitate towards the windows when I’m away. Wiley, by the way, is doing well. Always under Bailey-attack and has not resorted to the flat-out takedown he put on Holly…..not sure he has that in him anymore. Does still love those morning car rides…..
What happens when a 200-lb 8th grader slips and trips and falls down the stairs? You get a hole in your drywall……I guess I’d rather have the wall damaged than the boy damaged….
Bailey is rocking a solid 45 pounds at six months; we are thinking she’ll top out around 60. That means she is as big as Holly right now and will end up a little bigger than Wiley (right now; at Wiley’s peak he was 65 lbs). Just go spayed and we just started training her on the invisible fence today.
The one word I would use to describe Bailey is….calm. Just really easy going….except when she is in her puppy mode. Very laid back though…which is a good thing….
Getting some work in……all of us need to be doing more of this; the idea that we would use the treadmill more with it upstairs hasn’t really worked out yet….
Now this is cool….Melissa sent this postcard as part of her wedding invitation; the RSVP was printed on the back of it. We think, but are not sure yet, that Melissa sent postcards that were specific to the geography of everyone who is invited to the wedding.
The cool thing about this postcard is we had never heard of this park! And yes, there is a colorful musical fountain there! We’ll have to check it out this summer (the internet reports it is kind of sketchy with homeless…we’ll see)
Cpher, rocking his wrestling pullover, his medal, and a printout of the bracket from the Thornapple tournament.
A note that Kevin got from one of the orginazations that he is volunteering with in Boston. There’s another evaluation out there somewhere that I should get as well…..
The basketball team. There are four kids who can play in that picture. And 5 who can’t.
I saved this so that I can text it to Kevin at opportune moments…..
The other family even when Kevin was home….a nice game of cut throat Uno. Each hand took forever since everyone was always picking up cards and shoving the penalties to each other (and adding on to them). We figured we’d play until someone left crying and mad but that didn’t happen (Matthew did leave the table in disgust at one point…but he came back quickly)
