The Daily News

We all survived the BBQ cookoff opener. Though, we were dissappointed...we thought it would be more like The Bite of Seattle where you can sample lots of food. Our entry fee did score us a "free" meal (Chipped BBQ beef sandwich, famous Texas style beans and coleslaw) which we all ate gratefully - even me! The remainder of the BBQ happenings were all for corporate sponsors and by invitation only.

Brian is busy adding some overtime shifts to his time off and working on the house...which will probably be the way it goes for a little while. The boys and I are going to head down to Space Center Houston for the morning adventure. Ocean and I played a rousing game of peek-a-boo this morning. I was in the closet and he kept opening and closing the door and squeling/giggling as I said the famous "peek-a-boo". Ocean is into being able to put smaller items into large items and then taking them back out too. He can finally hold his sippy cup and drink from it by himself!

Yesterday I gave August a haircut and it turned out pretty good considering how much movement is going on from August whilst I have scissors in my hand. August is doing so well with beginning to read! He notices words all the time and it still amazes me. The other day I was driving around the nearby mall, I had just bought a slow cooker at Linens and Things (I dropped my other one in the move and it broke) and wanted to see what other shops were there. We passed by a few buildings and August proclaims, "Its Chuck E. Cheese"! We haven't been there with August and I was perplexed at first, then I remembered they sponsor some PBS shows.

Well, I must be on my way. Besides August wants to do his own entry!
