hello , thursday

It has been another very hot week here in NELA.   I know you Westside folks don't have too much to complain about,  but hey we have less traffic...so there!
It's been quiet around here.  Greta is reading her Dick and Jane books and she couldn't feel more proud of herself.  One of her favorite things to say is, " Henry!  Please be quiet, I am trying to read."
Hen is amazing.  He is 90% diaper free.  We just keep one on if we will be out for a long day. He is still not to keen on public restrooms.  He is quite the dancer, his drawings of people are now including legs that protrude from a big round head with eyes and a mouth, and his vocabulary grows everyday.  With this growing vocabulary we have less frustration which is always helpful.  I did have to borrow the book  Siblings Without Rivalry recently since we are having some battles which have left me at a loss at what to do.  It is a great book and has helped a lot.
Today I have a wedding consultation for a wedding in October.  Classic Hollywood is the theme.
It is supposed to be cooler today, sweet relief.
Oh, I forgot to mention the smell of death that is wafting up from under our deck the past few days.  Im pretty sure it's a skunk, or was a skunk.  It's horrible and there is nothing we can do about it.  We are stuck inside for now.
Have a great day.  The weekend is almost here!  Woohoo!
