A 1st of August post.

It's August already!

Which means:
Summer is almost over. Luckily, well...hopefully we have a couple more months of enjoyable warm weather.
All the kids are going back to school soon. We see Maddi less when school starts up. Kind of a bummer. However, we have another summer full of memories to cherish.
2 months and baby E will join us in the outside world. As the days go by I look forward to seeing her little face more and more.
July is over. Another month of sales under Ryan's belt. He made Senior Producer just in the nick of time. I'm so proud of him. He comes by some of the work naturally but other things I know he is really working hard for.

I'm currently sitting a few feet from the shores of my favorite lake. I love that I can write while listening to the waves and watching the sun fade in and out of the clouds. I finally went into Lake Michigan too! I can't believe I took this long to wade in the water and feel the refreshing waves. I've dipped my toes in a couple times but didn't brave the chilly water. Being submerged in water when you're pregnant is a strange feeling. I feel like some of the weight is lifted but I try to clench my stomach muscles and it all feels funny. Then I get out and feel heavy all over again.

This beach is beautiful. And the water is a great temperature. It might even be warmer than the air now that the sun is setting. We were joined by a couple friends today. Ryan's good friend Craig and his nephew came to splash around. We also have Cecily tonight. She's the daughter of my co-worker/ friend Rhonda. Such a great kid! She's got spunk and charm and is polite too! Her and Maddi get along like peas in a pod. I love that Maddi has a couple friends to play with when she stays with us.

And they all had so much fun splashing in the lake. I even joined them for some monkey in the middle! We couldn't have asked for a better Wednesday evening.

Keep loving.
