The laptop is so very close to be being fixed, the new keyboard came in today. I have a ton of pictures to upload and lots of news to share. I thought I would give a little update in the meantime.
Gary-
Gary has been busy with work and help his boss Dwayne flip houses. They just finished the third house this summer and are starting to look for a fourth! I think the best part for him is hanging at "the club" after working at the houses. For those who don't know Gary is a member of the VFW and he has found a new hang out for him and his friends. Gary's friend Tom just finished fixing our garage so Gary has been busy organizing "his" space.
Aiden-
Sassier than ever!! I never realized that three is such a hard age. His imagination just blows me away at times. Lately he loves to tell me the shapes he sees in the clouds. He loves giving his little brother a hard time though, there are lots of head locks and screaming already. Aiden has been working on sleeping in his own bed and Gary and I are loving it also.
Owen-
Owen has finally decided that walking is a better mode of transportation than crawling. One advantage is being able to carry things. He's getting faster and better at it every day. Owen recently had a visit to the pediatrician and is doing fantastic. He's taking after his big brother and is going to be a little peanut. He weighed in at 20 lbs 1 oz and is 29 3/4 inches. He does however take after his mother and has a huge head. That huge head seems to have a perpose though, Owen has a very large vocabulary. He's adding words everyday and will repeat most words you ask him to say. Here is a list of his most used words....

Lindsey-
I've been keeping busy trying to keep up with everyone else!! Working three days a week is just enough to get me out of the house but so much that things at home have to suffer. My crafting/scrapboking have been on hold, I usually don't do much in the summer months for some reason. That doesn't mean I haven't been stocking up my supplies. I'm looking forward to fall, I truly love the cooler weather and I'm excited to cook some hearty fall meals.
That's a quick update on the McFarland Family until the laptop is back up and running!!
