Things are starting to look like fall around here but it certainly doesn’t feel like it. It has been so hot and dry. Our lawn and garden are dead, my black beauty bell peppers that were well on their way to glory are shriveled up and falling of the plants. I didn’t get any last year, either. Maybe next time. Or maybe I’ll just plant flowers.

And now it’s time for an Evelyn June update: She is still a sweet petite, only weighing 13 pounds, 4 ounces at her six-month check up a few weeks ago but she is big on personality and is in to everything! She has mastered the log roll and will follow you around the room, or launch her little body off the bed, which she demonstrated for us yesterday. Now she is on her way to crawling and can get up on all fours and rock back and forth or she’ll do an army crawl and drag herself to where she thinks she needs to be (which is usually where the computer or other electrical cables are). Time for some major baby-proofing or at least some of those plastic gates that link together to make a corral. Baby herding at it’s finest!
