Toward the end of July, Mom and Dad piled us all into the car to go "house hunting." We didn't have any sort of hunting attire that I could discern, but off we went. I liked the first house with the PINK bedroom, but Mom and Dad weren't sold on it. I guess my opinion doesn't hold much weight! I hear murmured promises of a pink room in our new house... We looked at a lot of houses that day, and finally saw one that Mom and Dad really, really liked!
On July 24th, Gavin and I got a new baby cousin!! She is beautiful.
Mommy and Dad celebrated their wedding anniversary by going out to dinner in Harrisburg and playing mini golf, while Gavin and I played with Grandma and Gramps.
In August, we celebrated Nate's new goddaughter's Christening! Gavin and I played with our friend's trucks the whole time. Baby C didn't cry when the water got poured on her head. We all loved the fancy cake back at our friend's house after!
Sadly, we had to fly very quickly up to Cape Cod on August 19th to say goodbye to Super Grammy. We got to her room around 10:00 that night and hugged her and blew her sleepy kisses. The rest of the week was spent getting ready for her wake and funeral, telling our favorite Super Grammy stories, and playing a little bit too. Grammy's services were really beautiful - and very well attended. A bagpiper played lovely music for Grammy back at Aunt Rosie's house just before lunch. Mommy flew with both us kids by herself back to Maryland on Sunday, as Daddy had flown to Myrtle Beach to see Uncle Andy for the weekend. I got a really cuddly teddy bear backpack/leash out of the deal, and I named him Cubby.
Sadly again, poor Pippi went to keep Super Grammy company the next week. I miss Super Grammy and Pippi very much, and ask about them a lot. I think they are having a good time together though.
So that's July and August in a quick recap. Here are some of the funny things I said!
Once upon a time there was the sweetest baby who never ever cried. And then she was eaten by a tiger. Her parents could never have another baby again.

It's so, so funny. Like, I'm serious.
So before Christmas, Santa will come to a party and I can tell him I want a tub for my dolls, right?
My eyes are stating to say, "I'm tired!" (said in a squeaky voice)
I was impressed (by the minions in Despicable Me)
Bernelephant - benevolent: Nate asked Laura if she'd rather be a benevolent leader or a dictator. Laura chose dictator.
