Dog Days of Summer

August has been a great month for us, and despite being 7 months pregnant I've enjoyed the late arrival of summer. The humidity and days in the 90s are not very popular with most Philadelphians, but this transplant LOVES it. We've travelled a good bit, made some good progress getting ready for the baby, and continue to enjoy the life we've made here.

We spent the early part of the month at the cape with Scott's parents and Amy, Michael, Katie, Anna, and John. We had a such a wonderful time and everytime we are together I wish we could see them more often. Here are some of the highlights... as you will see, our nieces and nephew are adorable!


We were up there just in time for my dear friend Susan's newest edition, Quinn, to be born and were able to stop by New Haven on our way home for a visit. Isn't he sweet!!

Finally, we had a great trip to DC last weekend for my goddaughter's 2nd birthday. Kyra is so precious and we had a fantastic weekend reconnecting with Jen and Colin.
I just love the expressions on the kids' faces. Now when do I get to sink my teeth into CAKE!!



In the coming weeks, I'll try to post some pics of the progress on the nursery. The fall semester begins in one week and will be very hectic, but I'll do what I can!!
