Quality Time


We spent the weekend with Karen and Tim. They needed a babysitter for Sophie all day Sunday and, of course, we jumped at the opportunity. Sophie has grown considerably in the short time since our last visit. She is getting cuter by the day and interacting somewhat with those around her. We got to spend some real Quality time with Sophia. She’s not the only one who has changed. I see noticeable differences in Karen. There is something new about the way she carries herself. I can’t explain what I see, it is subtle. It just may be me seeing her now more as a mother and adult and less as our little girl. Whatever it is it is good. I think Sophie is good for her – even with the sleep deprivation.

Sophie isn't sleep deprived.

Christy and Christian stopped by for dinner on Sunday so we had our whole family together for a while.


The drive home was uneventful (for us) but we took out a bunch of love bugs on this trip. They are out in force procreating and splashing their bodies on the windshield.

The view through the windshield when we got home.

The cat mystery continues. All 7 cats are present and accounted for today. They are waiting around on the patio waiting to be fed some soft food. We will probably never know where they went for those 2 days. The MOD III automatic cat feeder did it’s job and kept them fed over the weekend. There are parts of 7 cats in this picture.

Penny goes back to the dentist tomorrow for stage II of her implant procedure. She cooked us wonderful meals all weekend and was only able to gum the soft food while we chowed down on everything.
