In the Summertime



In Houston, the only thing to do in the summer is go swimming!  We've had over 19 consecutive days of 100+ temps with 0 rainfall.  To say it's been hot, would be an understatement.  Thank goodness the humidity's been low.  I know next summer might not be as pleasant, so I'm enjoying the heat minus the humidity.  I love summer, but I kinda feel like in Houston everyone hibernates in the summer.  I told Bobby that I feel like I've been in hibernation for 9 months- winter in Bloomington and summer in Houston.   Bummer!  Well, despite the heat, Pip and I have ventured out to the park and we've started going for evening strolls around our complex. 

Some other news to report, I had my 6 week check-up.  Hooray!  I'm down 26lbs with another 14lbs to go until I'm down to my pre-pregnancy weight.  I credit the rapid weight loss to never having time to eat anything, nursing, and not having a huge appetite.  I hope to be down at least 10 more pounds by the end of September when we visit Colorado.  I told Bob I have to be in my clothes by then or else... Plus, I would really like to go shopping for reals.
