Here are some pictures that I finally downloaded of the first day of school and soccer. It's basically autumn in Georgia (which means it's still in the 90s for at least two more months). Our leaves don't actually fall until Christmas. It's all really odd.
Anyway, about Soccer! Matthew had a more successful soccer practice this weekend- no crying, only some self-assaulting like last practice (and, again, he was one of many doing it), and he seemed to enjoy it a lot more. If we don't have a hurricane next week, we'll have a game!
Speaking of hurricanes...we are torn. We really want the hurricane (because that means a lot of rain - which we need - we had 5 inches from Fay alone and that one basically smacked Florida instead of Georgia). Gustav shut us out, so we have to hope Hanna delivers (or, Ike - which is the next one coming that just formed in the mid-Atlantic). We just don't want anything to blow off our brand new roof that was really expensive. No, I don't watch the weather channel 24/7 or worship Jim Cantore. Check http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ - the National Hurricane Center - and you too can keep track of all this weather excitement. Still think I'm nuts? You'd keep track of this stuff too if you ever moved into a house five days before a hurricane hit while pregnant and your husband was out of town for a month (2003 - Hurricane Isabel in Maryland). They can do a lot of damage even if they don't hit you directly...
