Busy Week

Kathryn had fun playing at our house with Samantha this week. Unfortunately it rained so we had to limit our playing to inside. Samantha is about 1/2 a year older than Kathryn, so Kathryn has a blast watching and trying to mimic the "big girl" things Samantha can already do. They had a good time playing inside the school bus and wearing each others shoes.

Another highlight from our week, was a quick visit from Uncle Jon. He moved back to Atlanta this week. He is working for the same company as he was in Boston, but he was able to transfer to Atlanta. The company, Digitas, is growing their office there so he was able to move back down and fill their needed position for an Art Director on the Home Depot account. Kathryn was very excited to see him and was pouring on the "flirting". We are looking forward to going down soon to check out his new place once the moving truck arrives with his stuff.



Kathryn and I had fun making Zucchini bread this week. We have a small garden this summer that has been producing huge zucchini for us. We don't get out to pick our garden as often as we should, apparently, because the zucchini is huge each time we go out there! I tripled the recipe with just one zucchini. I'm going to try to be better about getting out there sooner to pick them before they get so huge! Our tomatoes aren't doing so well this year. We have cucumbers too, which seem to be doing well...since they'll grow in and survive just about any conditions. But as far as our baking went, Kathryn had fun playing with all the flour I spilled and the bread came out tasting good! Next week were are going to try making some zucchini cookies that Scott's coworker gave us the recipe for.

As you can see, last week was a full week for us. It was also the end of Kathryn's summer gym class.
Gigi came with us this week to watch all the fun Kathryn has and to see some of the things she does. The fall semester starts in a couple weeks and goes through January. We decided not to enroll her for the fall semester. That is such a long time (and a lot of money). We'll take a little break until next year and then maybe try it again when she is a little older. We are defintely going to keep going with the music class, Kindermusik, though which starts again in just a couple weeks.
