July was a busy month. Mike and I have both been working very hard, but have each had time to go our seperate ways for vacations with friends. Earlier in July Mike went with Matt and some friends (Tom and Dan) to Las Vegas for a boys trip. It seems as though they had fun gambling, seeing the sights, and catching a show.

Maddie and I just got home from St. Louis. We too, had a great trip. We visited with our friends, Sarah, Chip and Alex Duello. We got to go to a Cardinals baseball game and to the zoo. Best of all though we got to play with Sarah and Alex a lot!

Maddie is doing great. She is growing like a weed. She seems to get smarter each day!!!! She is playing all over the house and outside, and is quite the dare devil when it comes to exploring.

I am feeling great, and go to my first doctor visit on Friday. The nurses that I have seen up until this point say that the baby's due date is around April 4th. Since I had a Csection last time they will do one this time and will schedule it for a week prior to due date.

Stay tuned for more....
