OK.  So, how has everybody been    Everything here is moving right along at warp speed.  It is so hard to believe that Zander will be 1-YEAR-OLD in a month!!!!!!  Seems like only yesterday, blah, blah, blah.  Still not walking yet, but sooooo close.  Lord help us.

We went to the Gallutia family get-together in the booming metropolis of Bryan, OH (home of Dum-Dum suckers & Etch-A-Sketch) about 2 weeks ago & had a BLAST.  We didn’t want to come home.  Bryan is such a sweet little quiet town & would be a great place to raise kids.  Its the kind of place where you don’t have to lock your doors.  My only complaints would be that the Wal-Mart is ENTIRELY too small & there isn’t a mall in sight (GASP!!  {THUD!!}  That is me passing out.)  Anyway, Zander got totally spoiled by Me-Maw & Pe-Paw & loved hanging out with his Cousin Jordan & Melisha & the whole Gallutia gang (give or take a few.)  We also got to go to CEDAR POINT, one of the COOLEST PLACES IN THE WORLD!  WOO HOO!!!  Thank you so much David & Karen for putting us up & putting up with us!  We love you!

BTW…For those of you that love to wear beautiful artwork, please go visit TYE DYE MARY & buy some of her awesome stuff!  And now back to the show…

Zander had his 6-month check-up with his Cardiologist & all is absolutely perfect.  He will not have to visit him again for a whole year.  He weighed in at about 23 pounds.  He had an EKG & an ultrasound & Dr. Moreau says his heart looks awesome.  HOORAY FOR MODERN MEDICINE!

Hope everyone is staying cool & having a fun summer!  We have been swimming quite a bit & Zander just loves it! He kicks & splashes & tries to jump right out of my arms.

Well not a whole lot more to say.  Everyone take care & keep in touch!
