Not much news.....

....here on the Botvin front. The kids are getting bigger, school is starting next month, and the daily life goes on. Asher has been cutting his last 7 teeth for the past couple of weeks, and yes, he's getting them all at once. It's been a little rough, but not horrible. He's talking quite a bit more, saying, "eat, all done, ut-oh, kitty, down, that (said over and over again, while pointing)". He's a funny little man. He loves his Teletubbies, Playschool Farm set, books, riding car, and most of all, his sister.
Nina is doing well - getting older. I never knew that "almost 6 year olds" knew everything that there was to know in the world, and that they can do everything by themselves. I really am the idiot that she thinks I am. Silly me. She's changing, and it's all good - just annoying at times. She's better when she's busy, which means that I need to do most of the entertaining, or carting her around. She is funny as hell, though. She's growing her bangs out, and she looks so much older and prettier. I always liked the bangs, but she wants them longer, so we're dealing with the ponytail holders and headbands.

Blake and I are doing well....more summer house projects. Blake power washed the back deck over the 4th of July weekend, and now we're just waiting for a not-so-hot day to stain and weatherproof it. Horrible job, either way you look at it, but it will be done for a few years.

I've been doing a few craft shows, so business is picking up. I need to clearance some of my odds and ends on ebay because my studio is so packed that I can't walk in there.

How are things in your neck of the woods??
