Summertime Fun

Tuesday, July 26, 2011
Today is the 41th day of 100+ degree weather. 
The record is 69 days in 1925. 2 years ago, the summer of Brandon,  we had 68. 
We never left the house
This is our June and July 2011
Feel for us
Send us water

As you can se, we are on track to break a 85 year old record. 
Fun for us. 
Our 800lb water slide STILL has not arrived.
So what do we do in Austin when it is hot? 
We get naked, get in our ghetto plastic pool and take pictures!

"NO more pictures, Mom!"
"Seriously mom?"



What do you do when it is 105 in Austin?

It's hot during the summer in Austin
Highs even at night are still in the 80's
This is the first summer since I have been in Austin
That I have not been pregnant 
Or had a newborn
Last year was ridiculous
Cabin fever was at an all time high 
This was the headlines all over the news

"2009 is already the hottest summer in Austin's history — shattering the previous record — but the sweltering city might not be done setting dubious milestones in 2009. Two more days of triple digits will tie the record for the most 100-degree temperatures in a year: 69 days of lawn-killing, air conditioner-straining heat. A typical year has 12 triple-digit days."


Because of the last 3 years...
I have sworn off making a {future?} baby during the months of August  -  November

Thankfully, this year has been relatively mild;
lots of rain, the lake levels full, our grass is still green
and the temperature has stayed in the high 90s.
We knew August would get hot though...
and this last week has been HOT, hitting 105, with a heat index of 110.

After school, the boys head straight outside.
This is what we do until dinner.
Clothes come off
Everyone is wet
Who doesn't love an Austin summer?!!



What color is that?

The flood gates have opened! I can no longer keep up with the vocabulary...over the last couple of weeks we added way too many words to keep up. We can ask him to say something and he will repeat the same word. He also can recognize that fire, steam, and  food is "HOT". Usually this is followed by him blowing to cool it down while he says hot, hot, hot.  And he also started to answer questions, like what color are the trees (gween) and where is your X? He said "I don't know" the other day when we asked him where his nini is. His pacifier. SO SMART. My little Einstein.
He said lots of new names at the baptism Alex, Amy, Bob, Donna, Ellen, and Vic. We successfully got him to say BOOBA, too!

Here he is answering some questions in the pool.
