*My spell check says sweated is not a word, and I'm not sure it sounds right. But I looked it up, so I guess it works.

We had plans to go to the festival in our downtown area yesterday. It looked like fun, but mostly we were excited because it was free. I'm all about free, aren't you? My husband teases me and says if someone put their garbage on the curb and said it was free, I'd take it. I'm not quite there, yet. :) Anyway, when we realized just how hot it was supposed to be, we had second thoughts. Having a newborn in the heat just didn't sound like that much fun. And then Fritter ran a fever most of yesterday so we were confined to the house. I encouraged my husband to go without us and enjoy the car show. He stayed because he didn't want to ditch me with three tired, hot, grumpy kids. I love that man.

At the end of this month, my dear husband leaves for a two and a half week work trip. I shouldn't complain. It's not six weeks, and this time he'll be on this continent. But still, no fun. We've turned the tv off pretty much completely (with a few exceptions) but I think that rule is going out the window for half a month. I'm preparing myself for all the extra discipline that comes with the daddy leaving, more tv, daddy coming home cycle. And all the extra snuggles everyone seems to need. Including myself.

After July comes August. August is when we get to go on a very much needed family vacation home to Wyoming. I miss my family. We'll escape the heat. We will need all the extra family time when my husband returns. It's going to be good. I cannot wait.

When we return it will be almost September. Summer will be nearly over. We will venture outside once more. Until then if you need us, we'll be either in the pool, or hiding from the sun indoors.
