Happy Labor Day Everyone!!

So, it's Labor Day Weekend and Mommy and Daddy both left the house Saturday...without Summer. Summer had her first non-family baby-sitter. Kind of like a mini practice for day-care starting tomorrow. Our friend Robyn baby-sat for about three hours while Mommy went shopping and Daddy was playing golf. Thanks Robyn! You're super!!! Summer was a little princess. Played with Robyn for 20 minutes or so, then fell asleep for about an hour, woke up, played and ate, and then Daddy came home. Good job Summer, we're proud of you!!!!

The next morning I took this picture before we went out on some errands. Our latest thing is putting Summer in her Leap Frog Activity Center. She can't quite stand up, but she can play and watch while leaning forward.

Then we dressed Summer up for the day, as we needed to go check out a hard-drive to back up our system (most everything is on DVD, but a hard-drive back-up will be easier to recover with, etc...). Anyway, the model we wanted wasn't there, so we went on to our next place...OSH, to get some flowers for the back patio. Well, anyway, here's Summer...I had to change my shirt so we could match. :-)

Now today we plan on going to Toys R Us to hit the sales and get a few more needed things. Always running...hope to have a nice dinner for the holiday, though.

Summer has been much better the last few days. She watches Baby Einstein for about 20 minutes, loves to listen to us read or do "the itzy bitzy spider..." and other things. She is "walking" when we hold her hands/body, she lifts her legs and falls forward. She is so curious, it's amazing to watch everyday. She is sleeping better and better. About 20-60 minutes during the day, then up for an hour or 2. But at night we've gotten her to bed around 10 PM and she sleeps 6-8 hours. It's been very nice.

OK, that's it for the day. Happy Labor Day! More after day-care!
