School has begun, and I am loving my new school. We have had a crazy week with Senator Claire McCaskill holding her listening forum at school. Plus, it was our first full week. This weekend was all about free fun. The Jefferson City Jays kicked off their season last night with a win. Cooper, Logan, and I went tailgating and ran into many folks from church. Free hot dogs, chips, and soda made the stress of being out alone with the boys worth it. Then it was over to the football game. Thanks to Rick and Christy Smith, we all got to the game before kickoff. Daddy joined us, and Logan had a blast! The Jays won 44-20! We may be repeating this outing!
Today, we slept in, and then went to the Fire Station's Grand Opening. With sirens and lights going, Logan and I rode in the front of the firetruck around Holts Summit. It was awesome! Logan wasn't too sure in the beginning, but was sold as soon as we started moving. We then walked around the new facility. We are very blessed to have such a great community.
After nap time, we went to the capital lawn for the Christian Family Festival. We heard many great bands, but the best was saved for last. Mathew West closed the show with a great performance. I now have a few new favorites for the Ipod. Check out Stop the World if you can.
Cooper update: He had his two month check up. He weighed 12 lbs 5 oz, and was 23 1/4 inches long. Now wearing 3-6 month clothes that are almost too short, he is in the 75 percentile for height and weight. Cooper is smiling and cooing and is just too cute for words. This week, he slept for 8 hours in a row! Yippee! He hasn't repeated that yet, but it did make me feel really good.
Logan update: Logan is growing up so fast. He is getting so tall and now likes to take his stool around so he can reach things. He asked me to take him to the potty today. Kids just grow up too fast! Last weekend, we went putt putt golfing. Logan shot a 21 for the 18 hole course. His longest put was 5 inches, but he knocked it in everytime and shouted, "It's in the hole!" Mommy also did well, even though I carried Coop in the front carrier. Logan would just pick up my ball from where ever I hit it and drop it into the cup for me:) I didn't complain.
Well, enjoy this mild August! It has been beautiful. In fact, teachers in this school have been wearing coats, because it is too cold. I bet the kids up the road would love to partake in air conditioning. If only we could share... Love to all!

THANK YOU so much for sharing, I especially enjoyed the video and music. Grandma Janis must be over the moon, with two adorable grandsons. Emma Lynne is getting a brother in January ... Woo Hoo. Hope everyone is well, please send some cooler temperatures down our way. 68 days of over 100 degree temperatures, not in a row, though. Blessings to all, love, Great-Aunt Sandra
