Babies

Well, it's official. I will have a niece in November. My brother Matt and his girlfriend Kimmy are having a girl. We are all excitedly looking at little girly clothes and such since right now all we have are my boys.
In other news, my sister had a miscarriage the day after her first doctors appointment and while it does simplify things for her ( she didn't know if she could finish school for her teaching degree which she is almost done with, work and fit a baby in too, her dogs are enough to handle with what little free time she has) it still is a very sad thing for her and us too. I think she pictured her baby and Matt's growing up and playing together like we did with our cousins.

We are currently spending our summer going to the library once a week. Hopefully, Jarrett's dvd of Teacher's Pet will arrive soon so we can stop checking it out of the library every week. Max rides his bike every chance he gets since it rains so much right now. He needs something to use up the boundless energy he has or he drives everyone crazy!! When it rains and his daddy can't work, Max uses that time to wrestle and fight with daddy.

Father's day Max was happy to give Daddy the monster truck he made at Aunt Shell's house when they had a sleepover Thursday. He was so excited about the presents that they made. Jarrett made his dad a red car and they both made Grandpa Mark a bank. I had to work that afternoon. Max and Mikey went to his mom's to see Grandpa Kawaguchi for father's day. I spent the afternoon at work listening to cds and thinking about Dad. He died 7 years ago this year.
