Oh Boy...Almost Time

Woo hooooooooooo...the magical first day of school is approaching quickly!! I couldn't be happier! (I'm throwing myself a HUGE party on September 4th!! I think I'll bake myself a yummy cake) Well, let's see...not a whole lot to report. It's been a chilly end to August! Farmer's Almanac is predicting a VERY bitter winter! Brrrrrrrr...if August is any indication of that...I believe it. Gideon is standing up now. He pulls himself up to stand, but still needs to hang on. He does let go with one hand now though...so it's only a matter of time before he's off and running!! He's such a sweetie. I don't think Elliott is too thrilled with Gi's accomplishments. (all of a sudden he can get to HIS things...that is NOT cool) The kids are good. I think they are ready for school to begin. Emma, Elliott & Gi all have doc appts on Tuesday. For the past 6 months, or so, Emma has had periodic stabbing pains in her chest. So, I am getting that looked at. I am hoping they will schedule an echocardiogram to check and see if the hole in Em's heart completely closed. We'll see. It's a bit worrisome though because she can be sitting watching TV and get the pains in her chest. (out of the blue) So, best to have it checked out! Elliott and Gi just have their usual well-checks. I'm anxious to see how much both of them have grown. I am having my first Photo Show at an Arts & Crafts Fair here in Lambertville on October 11th. I am soooooooooooooo excited!!! I'll have a booth set up with my matted prints to sell. I can't wait!! This is a true test as to whether I can make money with this!! Wish me luck! OK...off to putter!
