Happy Birthday Naney!

We celebrated Lily's 1/2 birthday today. It seemed like a good time to give her a lot of attention and try and have some fun. The day started off with a playdate and muffins, complete with candle and a rendition of "Happy Half Birthday to You" with Will and Wade.

We ended the day with a trip to, where else, the Dairy Godmother, and the park with some friends. It was a fabulous way to get all our spirits up!

Bill and Imogene went to physical therapy this morning. Imogene was a little less than cooperative at 8 a.m. But PT Susan gave us some good homework for the next two weeks, since we'll miss next week while we are at the beach. She also called us with some great news this afternoon, a permanent appointment time! Thursdays at 11 a.m., starting September 17. Lily is in school Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Friday mornings will have to be our 'play-day.' We're so happy that we're on Susan's schedule. She seems very committed to her job and the children, and their parents, that she serves.

Can I just comment on something totally unrelated to my children? Michelle Duggar, the mother of 18 and one on the way in Arkansas. There is No, and I mean NO, way that a single one of those children ever cried for two and three hours at a time as a baby or there is No, and I mean NO, way that there would be 18, almost 19 of those kids. I hope they realize how lucky they are to have been blessed with that many sleeping, healthy children! Wowsers.

And one more thing...Only 3 more days until our favorite time of the year without a doubt, the Hokies kick off the football season!!!! There is nothing better than cool weather and football on tv all day. Good Luck to all my Gamecock friends Thursday night. What a dedicated bunch y'all are.
