19 Months!

19 Months! That means that August is now closer to 2 years old than 1 year old!!!! Not real sure if we are ready for the twos....except that I think August drops us hints now and then about what its going to be like! YIKES! This has been another busy month! We got to spend some time in Texas at mom and dads and at Happy convention. The whole family was there.....wow its getting big! Amazingly, we didn't add any new little ones to the family this year. Hmmm, wonder about next year :) August got to spend some time with all 9 of his cousins!!!! I think that he was a bit overwhelmed at times. But, they all got along great......most of the time. While we were there, we celebrated Drake's 5th birthday. That was fun...and loud :) August still amazes us with how much he can talk. He can count to 3 really well and you can just make out 4, 5, 6. He loves to read (or look at) books and loves to point out everything in the pictures. He is still a ball of energy and makes me tired just watching him.

We are still chugging along in our 5th wheel. It hasn't been bad at all. I have to say that I am really starting to miss my own washer and dryer. Doing laundry is an ordeal around here. We only have about 3 more weeks here in Colorado before we head to Texas. We are excited and anxious to get there and start building our new life!

Til next time....

August and Skye chatting on the chair. Wonder what they are saying....or maybe they were both just staring at each other.

Chaos after opening birthday presents!
August took a pretty good fall on the concrete at convention. It looked like he had a black eye the whole time we were there!
Look Mom! Daddy is taking me on a ride on my 4 wheeler! Maybe we should spend the extra money on a little bit bigger one for him????/
The Miller/Byrd family. Everyone was here this year. And of course, everyone but August is looking at the camera. He was very worried that Paw-Paw had two other little boys on his lap and not him!

I took a shower the other day and told August to be good! He said Yeah! When I got out of the shower, I found him up on our bed with a pen and had "colowed" all over himself! He was saying "colow owwie" I guess he pressed into his skin pretty good. Think it taught him a lesson? Nope!
We are kindof sortof thinking about potty training. I think right now August just thinks its cool to sit there. We haven't had any results IN the potty yet!
August loves to pretend to drink coffee our of our coffee mugs after we are done with them. He will walk around with it saying "Hot" and pretends he is drinking it. He must like that little drop that he gets from the bottom.
