Hot Summer Fun

Hot is definitely the word! Thank goodness for "aqua!" Yes, Brooks is still obsessed with water:) Now that he is on his feet, he is getting more and more brave. This past month he was been stung 3 times by a wasp, jammed the corner of his eye into coffee table, had several head scratches and got roseola. It might seem that I don't keep a good eye on him, but it all happens so fast! Who would know that he would try to pick up a wasp....really? The same day he bumped his eye, I looked over and saw him chewing on something. I guess the mulch in the yard is good? Wow.......

See the booboo on the corner of his eye. Yes, he is watering the wood bench.

Old McDonald's Farm.....

Well, we had a cat for awhile! I don't like to think of myself as a "cat person," but I do like them, I have to admit. I found a sweet, little kitten in the bushes at work. No momma cat, so I decided to surprise Trent with his new house guest. Trent actually liked the little fella that we named Blue. However, the less than 1 pound kitten quickly learned to come in the house thru the doggy door. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AN OUTSIDE CAT ONLY, as Trent is "allergic" to cats. Well, I found a home for Blue, but I really miss him:(

In addition to that eventful weekend, we got to see little Chase (oh, Meg and Doug too)! I wish Brooks would have been more playful, but he got his first ear infection that weekend. I tell ya, it sure was fun waiting 2 hours on Memorial Day weekend at the urgent care center with sick kids everywhere. These kids have grown quite a bit compared to last year.......

"Why does this Brooks kid keep screaming?" (beginning of the ear infection)
