Farewell to Summer

And how!  Saturday it was 102 degrees here and today it only got up to 65!  That went fast!  And of course, Mommy was ill prepared for this change in temperature.   Good thing we M----- gals are resilient to heat and cold.
Here are some overdue pics from our 4th of July trip to Greenville.  At least, I think it was 4th of July?  Actually, I really don't know.  It was about that time.  This was a festival we went to in Simpsonville and it was FUN!

And this picture is precious, and adorable!!

Team Lilly!  Go Summer!
Mommy is so glad to catch a break from the heat.  She is looking forward to long pants to cover her "prankles" or "pregnant ankles."  Truthfully, they're not that bad.  And her butt isn't as big as it was when she was pregnant with Lilly.  So Boots is giving her a little break.  Mama is 32 weeks pregnant now, which means in probably 7 weeks we will have a baby brother.  *GASP!* Shit!  That is not enough time!  This poor kid has no room (well, he does, it's pink), no name (ohkay, Boots!), only one pair of shoes (that is all Mama has bought so far), some stained girly onesies that may or may not pass as gender neutral (RE-cycle!), a Mommy in denial that he's really a boy (at the last ultrasound the technician gave Mama only one picture - just one - very clearly a penis because Mommy asked her to double check 25 times) - oy.  A boy.  Right now he is squirming all around in her belly - also very weird because it is so apparent to anyone who looks at Mommy's belly for a few minutes real good, you can see it moving from across the room.  Mommy can actually identify for you Yes, there's his leg, his arm, his foot, his elbow.  Isn't that weird?!  It IS weird!  It's VERY weird.
Anyway we welcome Fall with open arms around here.  We can't wait.  This is the BEST time of the year from Labor Day through New Year's it's the BEST time of the year - until Anna's birthday through Labor Day, which is also the BEST time of the year!  We could do without January and February though, because really, what are those months good for?
Happy Fall Y'all!
Love,
Lilly and Anna
