Little Things: August 2008

It's 8 PM and all three kids are asleep. Tom just scooted off to Melville Pond to try to catch a big fish and I have some time to myself as well (Opal is sleeping next to me) We are all doing terrific. Cole is doing climbing camp at a huge rock climbing gym about 30 minutes away and having a blast. Jack is still into the many transformers he received for his birthday. We have found a great preschool for him. He will be with kids his age that are taking another year before starting kindergarten, as well as a few kindergarteners. Haven is almost in underwear full time and no longer uses her pacifier. What a big girl! I'm keeping busy with the kids and Opal, who is just the best puppy we could have ever asked for. I've made a few friends but mostly have spent time with family this summer. Last weekend we had all of the Ferguson grandchildren at the Cape and wow was it wonderfully hectic! Next week we head to Maine for a few days with the Varney gang and we are very excited. Tom has started work and his first case is booked for next week. Newport Hospital is quite a change from Naval Hospital Guam and Tom looks forward to operating there. Well, I guess that's it. I wanted to post some pictures from recent weeks. Enjoy!
