I can’t believe it has been almost 3 weeks since I have posted a note. For a quick update of life. Brother-in-law visiting, just left this morning to go back to MN. Stepdaughter visiting for 4 weeks (now in her 3rd week) and mother-in-law and great aunt visited. On top of all that, we had a July 4th party for our Young Adults group at church with about 50 people showing up at our house. And I had to travel to Austin on business one day last week. We also went to a Frisco Roughriders baseball game and saw fireworks.

SO, as you can imagine I am exhausted! But, there is no end in sight until August 1 when we return from our trip to WV and PA to visit family and return my stepdaughter to her mom.

I will share a few thoughts then hopefully catch up with postings another time.
We just registered for baby stuff at Target and Baby’s R Us. I was so overwhelmed!!! Who knew that a baby needed so much stuff! Thankfully, I have a few good friends who are willing to help paint the baby’s room and assist in decorating. My family is throwing us a baby shower when we visit next week and we will have another shower when we return here in August. I am realizing there is much to do and little time left.
