Not Much . . .















Not much is going on in the Greene household. It sure gets dark early here. As a result, Andrew has not had the opportunity to work much on the retaining wall except for on the weekends. It gets dark around 5:30 or 6. This makes it hard for him to get anything done outside after work. He has gone for a run the last couple of nights in the dark with Harp. Which makes us all feel better because Harp gets some energy out and so does Andrew. There is one thing that I like about the time change now is that it is light out when I take my morning walk/jog at 6. It makes it easier for me because Harp doesn't freak out as much if he can see the pumpkins, scarecrows and caution cones while we are on our walk. Sorry, Sweetheart, for my selfishness.
These pictures are taken off of our back deck. I have put the before and afters side by side. That is 15 pallets of block. Each block weighs 68 pounds. We have had help from various friends and family and we really appreciate it. If it doesn't rain this weekend (which it is supposed to), Andrew should get closer to completing it. Unfortunately, he has to give up his treasured weekend football game viewing because the games are on so early here. I can't wait until we are able to enjoy Daddy's hard work.

I know I say it every time I talk about the boys but they are growing so fast. Each day it seems like they are learning something new. Whether it be blowing spit or sticking out his tongue when he smiles they are grabbing and reaching for everything. They are also napping better which makes Mommy much happier. They are also starting to wake each other up in the crib so I am thinking about separating them. The other night Gavin started screaming shortly after I put them to bed and I went in and checked on them and Drew was straddling Gavin's head and kicking him in the shoulders. Gavin got even because the next night I heard Drew whimper in the middle of the night and when I went and looked in on him Gavin had his feet propped up on Drew's belly. Nap time is going all right with them in bed. In fact, I almost hate to separate them because they always look for each other when I put them down.

This is the boys in their jogging stroller that a wonderful family from our small group gave us. We were on our way to get the mail. They really aren't looking at the camera but don't they look cute in their baseball hats?


I just can't eat another bite, mom. This eating cereal thing is wearing me out!


He is such a ham for the camera. I had a hard time picking just one.

They are both awake now so I better go! Have a great weekend! Pray for no rain until next week !

Looks like the wall is coming along nicely. I understand not being able to get work done because it's dark too early (we've been bummed too).

The boys are getting so big!! And cuter by the minute (wish I could see them again soon).

Thanks so much for calling the other night- Love you!!!!
