It’s a sad day here, we lost Pandora (Dee’s cat)…Dee had her for the last 12 years so it was especially tough for her. We don’t quite know what happened, just know that something got her in the field. She was a feisty little cat but really sweet and gentle the last year with the boys, a total change in personality from when she would only let Dee near her. She will be missed for sure, but is now buried near our plum tree in the shade (and under the bird houses so she will be happy!).

It was a pretty mellow weekend, Dee’s been working on the deck and it’s really taking shape and looking good. I took the big boys down to the beach and they played for awhile before naptime. Got some gardening done and then watched another little foster guy and he was GIGANTIC. A 7 month old baby that weighs 25 pounds…and here I thought Trey was big. This baby has fat rolls on his fat rolls, it’s just not healthy but he’s not my baby!

One more week and we take the boys on the train to Portland! YIPPEE! I’m so looking forward to that trip. It’ll be a fun week…Foster Parent Dinner Monday night, Beth and the girls are coming to see us on Tuesday night and I really can’t wait to see them, Wednesday we have a BBQ with some friends. Busy start of the week but lots to look forward to!
