Mid August and Back to School

No pictures today as Kelso is still sleeping in our office and I can't get to the home computer to download after he's gone to bed. The heat has finally come down a bit and it's really nice to be outside for dinner, playground, farmers market, and biking the kids to school/daycare. Kelso was 17.8 lbs today at the docs which we took him in to to see about his lingering congestion. Just teething they said even though he's been gagging on it all night long. He has one and a half front, bottom teeth and occaisionally tries them out on me. Kenzie wasn't that heavy at her 1 year check up and I think Kelso eats more than she does now. He'll be bigger than she is long before his 2nd birthday at this rate.
Mackenzie seems to age every time I turn around. We've decided to send her back to her old school that she left in May and she'll start there again next week. It was breaking my heart to think about sending her to yet another school where she knew no one and most, if not all of the kids are younger than she. Montessori seems a good fit for her and she'll be joining some of her old classmates in their new primary 3-6 class.
Rod is getting closer to a job. I'll miss having him around the house like he's been since nearly Kelso's birth! We've been considering a few different business ventures that we may both work on together. We keep a book on the coffee table to throw ideas into. I really enjoy using those dusty corners of my brain, too.
