Why is summer is going so fast?

This summer has FLOWN by! Maybe it's because Grayson and I have kept ourselves busy. As usual we've had many Pirates games this summer. Which has been exciting because they are in 1st place for the first time in like 20 years. So, the stadium has been filled and we've seen some good games. Grayson and I have also spent a lot of time at my friend's pool. He has a good tan going with his little fat rolls still white. It look so cute!

Two weeks ago we met Amberly, Josh, and Kenton at the Pittsburgh Zoo. It was HOT! But we had fun. The kids did great. I had Hailee with me for the weekend and she enjoyed it. Then we all went to a Pirate's game.

But still. Part of me isn't ready to go back to work. It's going to be so much harder this time because Gray is much more interactive. He wears me out but I love playing with him and watching him crawl all over the place. It's not going to be long and he will be walking around the house. Which makes me really sad. Where did my little baby go? *sigh*. Oh well, no use to lament over that because I can't turn him back into a baby. I can only do my best to remember each milestone and enjoy the moments.

I am gearing up for a yard sale! I have lots of Gray's baby stuff to sell and lots of stuff that has been sitting around the house. I keep wondering if I should try to sell my Earnhardt stuff, but I have no idea what some of it is worth. Some of the stuff should be worth a decent amount. But others, not so sure. Then it smells like cigarette smoke... urgh.

Anyway... Gray is sleeping and I am tired of watching TV. So, I figured I'd play around on the computer a bit.

We have teeth!!!

On Friday, Grayson and I were shopping at Walmart and he was chewing on my keys. So, like normal, I pulled down his lip to check his gums and low-and-behold I saw the very tips of his two bottom teeth :) I am so excited! He looks so cute. They've come up a little more since. He keeps playing with them with his tongue. Cracking me up.

Seth, Grayson, and I went up to Pittsburgh on Sunday because we had Pirates tickets on Monday. We stayed at the Mariott, took Grayson swimming (he finally got to swim with his Dad!), we watched some boat races at the Three Rivers Regatta. Grayson loved it. We had a yummy dinner at the SoHo restaurant that's in the hotel. We'd never eaten there. It was very good! Then Seth went to the casino and I read a book while Gray slept.

The Pirates game was fun while it was cloudy... but as soon as it cleared off it was sooooo hot! I thought Gray and I would pass out. lol. So, we left a bit early. Glad this coming Saturday's game is a night game. I won't be doing any day games next year. ugh.

Gray is with the babysitter right now and I am chillin at the house. I've read a bit, cleaned up a bit so Hailee a place to sleep this weekend. Should be a low-key week. But Hailee is coming to visit on Thursday till Sunday. We are taking her to the Pirates game with us! Hope she has a good time :)
