Summertime

Well, now that I'm off on summer vacation, hopefully I'll be a little better about blogging again.  Here's a list of the things I'd like to happen this summer:

1.  Get the deck refinished.  This one is "in process". Kendall is on his way to get the sander as we speak.  Should be done by the end of the week.

2.  Finish the Great Wall of Erdahl.  Again, we hope to have this done soon.

3.  Get the front yard finished.  The landscapers are supposed to be here around the 16th of June.  Hopefully they stay on schedule.  I want a pretty front yard again.

4.  Max sitting up on his own.  He tries so hard.  His head is so heavy.  His belly makes him spit up almost every time he tries.  But I'm hoping that by July he's sitting up on his own.  It will make playing with toys so much more fun!

5.  Read at least 10 books this summer.  Half trashy, half young adult lit.  I think one of the 7th grade teachers is going to start a book club with me at school in the fall.  It would be a great way to get the kids reading for their required reading and I think we could read some really fun books.

6.  Start trying for baby #2.  Yes, we're crazy.   But we also know we want several children.  And at the rate it took us to have Max, we don't want to take any chances.  We're thinking maybe September....but we just won't commit yet.  Which means we're not ready.  :P

7.  Clear out my closet.  It is full of old clothes that I have just beat the crap out of.  White t-shirts that just look gray.  Sweaters with holes in them.  I need to pitch some of this stuff!

8.  Find a way to marry my iPhone.  Yeaaaaaa.  I love it.  I want to marry it.  Must find a way around polygamy being illegal.....*grin*

I think everything is achievable! :)

#6 is the only one I think you have to be completely ready to do. Good luck, I hope the process is easier this time around!

the cleaning out of your closet is a very admirable goal on several levels....

Once this kid is out of me i hope it's like last time where i pull out all of my clothes and think "wow, i own a lot of clothes". I suspect you'll fall into that category here too once you get started.

"really late 20's" is an understatement!
uhh, I mean, uhhh aren't you only 27, like me? That's only "mid 20's". ;)

good luck on all your goals! Wow, Max could be sitting up already??
