Thursday night Liz and I drove to the New Orleans airport to pick up son David, who has been in Alaska for 4 months working! He was originally due to arrive early Friday morning but got on an earlier flight. The downside for us was the New Orleans airport is about 4 1/2 hours away from home; we picked him up close to midnight and got home around 4:30 Friday morning! I don’t think I’ve been the same since then and still feel in need of sleep! We’ve been staying up too late for 2 weeks watching olympics coverage but thank goodness that’s over now; plus another daughter and her family visited this weekend so we played with all of them. And I was riveted to a book I was reading (more on that later maybe). I’m hoping to catch up on my sleep this week. Is that possible to do?
Didn’t really take any pictures this weekend, which is unlike me. I noticed after taking a few of Katelyn in the sprinkler that my camera card was full….so I tried to clear the card off and then forgot to get the camera out again, must be due to lack of sleep!
Sam is starting to pull himself up from a sitting position without having to hold onto anything so he might start walking soon. Grayson starts kindergarten today, how is that even possible! It doesn’t seem that long ago that we drove to Texas when he was born!
I’m not only woefully behind on housework, but blog reading again and may never be caught up. I’m trying to decide whether to even keep on with blogging or not…..maybe I’ll think on it more later, after I’ve had a nap or 2!
How is your Monday so far?

Cute picture of Katelyn, but why were you running the sprinkler? Was it not raining there all weekend like it was here.
Go take a nap!

Life sure seems to get busier as the years go by doesn’t it!
But yours sounds like a good busy.
And I see you are reading Uncharted. That book rocked my world! I can’t wait to hear what you think of it.

Love her picture…she is so cute. I cant believe it has been 4 months since he left…crazy. I thought of you last night when they ended the Olympics…seems just like yesterday they started it all.

I know that I haven’t been around a whole lot, reading or writing on my own blog…but I’m hoping to start a new daily schedule within the next several days and will have some time built in for bloggy business each day. I do have a lot of great pictures to post in the next day or two….
Blessings,
Lori

I hope the first day of kindergarten is wonderful for Grayson! I can’t believe it’s been four months since your son left. It seems like you told us about that yesterday! I am sure you are glad to have him back.

A cute little girl in a darling swimsuit, playing in the sprinkler. That says “summer” all over. My kids are back in school, so I’m getting back into my Monday routine. I think now that summer’s over and I have some structure to my days, I can get excited about my blog again.

If taking a nap will keep you blogging, then please go do it now LOL I’m serious, I totally understand what you mean about needing to catch up on other things but I would hate to see you stop blogging.
Hugs,
Sandra
