We've been busy...

Hello everyone! Austin and I have been pretty busy lately. We've been walking every day with Jamie and Devlin and then hanging out with them a lot lately. Saturday we went to dinner with them at Applebees. Sunday they came over to walk and then swam in Austin's little pool. And yesterday we took the babies to the big swimming pool on post and had a great time! When we got to the pool there was only one other person there so we didn't have to worry about anyone splashing or playing around us. The babies had a great time along with a couple of big gulps of water from time to time! Austin and Devlin took turns floating in Austin's floaty toy. Austin loved to just float around in the water. He thought it was really funny when I went underwater then came up to surprise him! We are planning on taking them swimming again on Thursday when the pool reopens. It closes on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, probably to give the lifeguards days off. I was glad to see that they have lifeguards on duty, I wasn't sure if there were going to be any or not. We also went to the library last night to get some books. Austin liked all the books but he really wanted to eat them! We found out that the library has story times and there isn't an age limit. Anyone from ages 0 to 6 can attend so we are planning on taking them one day when the story time resumes again. It starts again on Sept. 7 and the librarian said that people bring their babies all the time. I'm really excited to meet other mom's and hopefully find out more things to do around the area with Austin. I was kind-of disappointed because the library is not very big. There are two locations for the library and the librarian said that we were at the one more aimed at youths. I guess it will have to do, I wish it were more like the Comstock library with the whole basement being just Children's books. I plan on checking out the library on post too to see what it is like!

Austin is now pulling himself up to standing on things. I caught him this morning standing up in his bed. I lowered it but I need to lower it again just for piece of mind! Right now he is jumping in his jumperoo, hopefully warring himself out so he can take a nap! He gets so cranky when he's tired but he just doesn't seem to want to give up! I've been trying to keep him up more during the day so he goes to bed at a decent time. The last few nights he hasn't wanted to go to bed until after 10. Sunday night it was 10:45 before he finally gave up. That is way to late! I need my time to myself to wind down before I go to bed!

That's about it, we are looking forward to Michael coming home. Hopefully he will be home Thursday or Friday. He said they are scheduled to work on Thursday but as soon as the plane pulls out they are out of there! He is kind-of bored, no wait, he is really bored!!!!

I hope everyone is having a good week! Did school start on Monday Aunt Jan? If so, how are things going? Talk to everyone soon!

Love Andi
