Hello all

Mommy and baby are doing well....sleepy, sleepy, sleepy!

Hey Smith Family,  Eli accidentally posted two things that were suppose to go on a blog with his friends.  So sorry.  I hope you are all well and Tamara that you are enjoying the sweetness of your baby girl.  (I'm hoping to see pictures, can someone send some)  Summer seemed to be sauntering (is that a word) along until this last week.  Now it's coming to an end way too quickly.  We have two boys from Florida coming to visit this weekend.  Eli's in Basketball camp and Nathan began his first season with football last night.  Zach's loving his guitar lessons and looking for other artistic expressions (cartooning) to gain skill in.  David and his brother have torn up our front yard (with the help of the boys) to try their hand at landscaping... I'm praying it gets put back together in a reasonable time-frame (and that this is not a Tim Allen experience).  I'm up in the middle of the night with allergies and looking for watermelon to eat, of which we have none.

Oh well.  Now I know all of you out there (esp. you women) have a point of view or something to say about "Something".  What's goin on with yunz?  Let us know.  Much love,  Jennifer
