Summer's over





Emily and Cassidy are best buddies, don't mind the age difference, they both giggle at anything the other does. This is becoming a problem at bedtime when I have two giggling girls for an hour.
Cassy suffers through each new tooth--fever, crying, difficulty sleeping. Remember, Emily already had eight teeth when she was adopted; Cassy had none. The nights can get very long. For six nights she woke up every hour. Thankfully, that's over.
Tate is forever patient with Cassy. She'll lay on him, pet him, pull his tail; he just waits patiently then gives her a kiss. What a great dog--I don't think Tucker would have had a fraction of his patience.
We enjoyed a day at the cabin Labor Day weekend. The girls played in the sand and went for a short walk with Nanny. Then the jungle gym came (Uncle Dirk) and the fun began!
Emily's first day of 1st grade went really well. She likes her teacher and has made new friends. We had been offered a full year's tuition if I wanted her to go to Bunker Hills this year--this was when Cassy was waking up every hour and we were getting to the breakfast table at 7:45 am--that's what time Bunker Hills starts. So, regretfully, I had to turn that down.
Keep checking back. Cassy has her fifteen month appt next Friday. I need to find out how much she's supposed to be eating. I think this kid would eat until she blew up, never gives me any indication if she's full.
Happy Autumn!
