Olue was first able to sit up alone last week at the cabin...Today, when I got her up from her nap, she was sitting up in her bed. I still haven't seen her get there, but when I put her down for her nap she was on her back! She's also scooting around on her tummy. I think we'll have a crawler before we know it!
Our Cat, Dumbo, had kitties right before the 4th of July weekend. They are doing great! The other night Cedar was barking crazy and the next morning we smelled skunk and couldn't find the kitties for a couple days. Today we found them. I think we have a smart Momma Kitty. She had hid them in our wood pile and brought them back to their house just in time to stay warm and dry in the Thunderstorm we had tonight. Johnny has named three of the four kitties...Elmo, Yellow, and Benyo. I named the fourth one...Fattie. I just realized today that Fattie is the oddball, he's the only one who's name doesn't end in "o"...Ha Ha!)
We had Farmer's Market in New Salem today. I brought the camera, because Josh wanted to get a picture of all the veggies after I had set them up. There were so many cars at the Coffee House, that I had to park across the street. I was met with a mob of ladies ready to help me unload the van. They all had their veggies and bread picked out before, I could even get my reciept book out. (Thus no pic:) We had a great sale! This was our 3rd farmers market week and we just keep making more money each time!
Johnny's been putting words together to make sentences. He says things like "Lu Wake!" (Olue's Awake!) "Eat Food!" and when he can't remember the name of something he calls it "Benyo". Funny Boy! He calls all bugs "Bumble" (for Bumble Bees...I told him this spring that he had to stay away from them so we wouldn't get stung). Anyway...We have Crazy-Bad Mosquitoes now, and when he gets a bite that really itches, he points to it and says "Bumble Owee!" He's so cute!

Last night we took a drive out to Josh's deer hunting grounds. He didn't get a gun tag, so he plans to bow hunt. We had a good time looking for deer and reminiscing the good ole days before we had kids and went hunting together out there all the time. We go to all the spots we used to with the minivan. Another reason for Josh to get that new truck...(Someday;)

Tonight's Storm
We went to the basement again. We've had so many storms this summer. John is always sad when we have to come upstairs, because he likes playing with the "outside" toys that we store down there. This time we just got wind and rain. It sounded like Hebron got hit hard. We hear the storm trackers over Josh's ambulance pager. The Hebron firemen were talking about lots of downed trees, a downed power line that started a fire, and rain that looked like a blizzard!
John's "Blweeler Blweeler!" (4-wheeler)
We got John a "Tow Mater" 4-wheeler. He has a blast driving it around the house and yard!
