We celebrated the fourth of July at the beach.
I (mostly single-handedly) entertained my in-laws this month. This included a trip to Disneyland. It was fun and I was surprised at how much there was to do for even a kid Timmy's age.
Seeing cousins together is very cute, especially when they hug and kiss:
I went with my brothers and Timmy to the Midwest for my cousin's wedding. I think my aunts, uncles and cousins are exceptionally fun and I love reunions. There are 19 cousins on my mom's side, and now that many of us are married, we make quite a crowd wherever we are. We also visited Chicago for the first time and really enjoyed it.
We planned an end-of-summer vacation...Cruising down to Mexico at the end of August, and we'll celebrate our anniversary in Mazatlan! I decided that this means I need to get in shape, so I finally broke the seal on my 30 Day Shred DVD. I have pretty much been keeping up with that, but my nasty habit of finding/seeking out cookies has sort of been sabotaging my body slimming plan.
Timmy's daycare is officially set up. He will start going a few days a week the first week of September. I imagine starting daycare will be for him much like starting work will be for me: exciting, thrilling and tragic all at the same time. I am still very excited to start my job, but now that I have only 1 month left of staying home with him full time, I just find myself wishing that I was only going to be working part-time. I'm going to miss hanging out with him so much, and I'm going to miss being the person that knows him better than anyone else in the world. Maybe once my student loans are paid off. Sigh.
Now you're pretty much caught up on my boring life. And given the rate of my posting, you won't hear from me again until I am a working woman.
