Some ABC's of our life!

A is for air conditioning. Our a/c broke about a week ago and we were able to get it fixed, but not before Mommy and Lucas came down with a cold.
B is for boating. Lucas had his first jet-skiing experience. No, he did not get on. We spent the weekend before last down at the dock and took the jet skis out with some of our friends. A great time was had by all. Karlene and Sandy were extremely gracious and allowed us to borrow their boat to stay in the cool while others were out jet skiing on the lake!
C is for Lucas' first cold. He has had a runny nose and a cough for a little over a week now and we have been to the doctor for it. Poor guy!
D is for dental extremity. ( I know that's stretching it!) Lucas has gotten another tooth! He now has two bottom teeth!
E is for ear infection. Along with Lucas' cold came a slight ear infection. He loves his medicine and we are hopeful that it will be clearing up soon!
F is for Florida! The Spanier family headed down to the panhandle for Labor Day weekend. We stayed at a condo on the beach and I never even set foot on the sand! We attending a wedding on Saturday and then had dinner with Kevin's mom's side of the family. On Sunday, we had a shrimp boil with Kevin's dad's side of the family.
G is for Gustav. Our time in Florida was cut short due to Hurricane Gustav. The outer bands were predicted to hit the panhandle and we didn't want to get stuck there so we headed home Sunday evening instead of Monday.
H is for home! We are now home and getting back on schedule.

As for other updates, Kevin has been working very long hours at work the past week. There was a period last week where he did not even get to see Lucas for a few days! Last Thursday, Lucas and I went to eat lunch with Kevin and his co-workers and then we went to see where he works and meet the rest of his co-workers. I think daddy very much enjoyed this! I have also joined a MOPS group (Mothers of Pre-Schoolers) that meets on the 1st and 3rd Fridays of each month. I am excited about this and am anxious to socialize with other mommys and have Lucas interact with other babies too! I will let you know how the first meeting goes! I guess that's about all for now!
