August 19, 2013 ~ Cold Summer

Well, we had a busy weekend, but I have to admit that it feels like a bit of a waste of a decent summer day not to be at the beach or the pool, but it's just been too cold. We haven't been in the pool since the start of August, and now the month is over.

We started the weekend hanging out with friends. Which is never a waste. Billy got to visit with Cub. Which goes as well as you would expect it to with two toddlers. They behaved, they misbehaved together, they misbehaved apart, then we all went home.

But we had fun, so that's what counts.

Sunday we were going to go hiking, but the rains came and washed away our plans. In the afternoon Billy and Daddy went to visit Grandpa (not to be confused with PeePop).

PeePop tells me his name is written P-Pop. Makes me think of J-Pop, which isn't bad, it's just not a name I associate with the wizened and wise. I will continue to write PeePop until Billy learns to write and decides for himself. He invented the name, after all.

And, unfortunately, it's been so cold we've been inside most of the time. Not that it's really that cold, but it's not summerlike weather. Billy dressed himself Saturday morning. This is what he came up with:

He looks unhappy, but that's only because it was early and he didn't want his picture taken. And yes, that's a wool winter hat on his head. And a fleece.
