Hey everyone! Man, July flew by. After record-breaking heat & more heat, & oh did I mention heat? I barely noticed that it was August because temperatures are just getting worse. It finally rained a couple of days but only brought the temp down a little.
There have been a lot of new things going on in the Baetz house. First, and most importantly, I started school again! I am more determined than ever to finish my school work & finally have a degree. I cannot wait until I can be doing what I want to do- teaching kids! My dream is to teach 4th grade, because that was the BEST & my favorite grade. I am taking a computer class, an English class, a sociology class, & an Earth, Space & Environmental Science class which I take for 6 Saturdays from 8am-5pm. (It was killer today-my first day- but so worth it in the end).
Hunter has been at his grandma's since the 3rd when his baby cousin was born. Glad he can spend some time down in TX with them before his school starts, but I sure miss him! I finally got his baseball pictures from a couple of months ago- they are so cute, if I can get my scanner to cooperate, I'll post a picture. He is going to be in 1st grade- I CANNOT BELIEVE IT! He's so smart & helpful. I just love him & love bragging about him. His 6th birthday is the 29th & chose a pirate theme this year for his little party.
Avery is getting some teeth-I feel like I've been saying that forever- but she is teething once again. For some reason, it seems like each time gets worse. There are hours during the day that I wonder where my sweet Avery went ha ha. She's smart & TRYING to start potty training. She wanted to sit on the potty for a while (never actually went potty) but tried. Now, she wants NOTHING to do with it. So we'll see. I'm not going to try to push it. She tries to count now, loves singing songs, & watching her tv shows. But her favorite thing is dancing. We cannot wait until she's old enough to enroll in a dance class! That will be fun.
Anyways, that's a little about what's going on over here. Oh, we have now had our first snake, an armadillo, deer, cows--who leave nice "cow patties" & of course, raccoons. It's definitly been an adventure! Hope everyone has a nice weekend!!
