Keeping cool

Our a/c is finally fixed and, boy, do I appreciate cool air now that it's back. We've tried to keep cool over the past several days by spending as much time away from our house as possible. It rained a lot on Sunday, so that made it easy to cool off. Cati and Papa went out to play in the puddles alone at first. Baby Gus stared out the window, having a fit to join them, so, of course, I obliged. See the cute pics below!



They checked for cars first, I promise.



Yesterday, we swam and played at the pool with McConnell and Ruffin. No pictures in the actual pool because Merritt and I had our hands full trying to watch all four daredevil children. It was exhausting, but lots of fun!









I love this one!



I'm headed to Guatemala tomorrow. Excited and nervous and really, extra-sad about being away from Cati and Gus for a few days. I am very thankful, though, that I have the opportunity to visit our baby boy. He is a gift from God and I can't wait to get my hands on him. Cati is sending me with lots and lots of kisses. She told me that she wants me to kiss him all over his face for her and Gus. So very sweet!

I'll be back with updates soon. Thanks for all your prayers and support. We love y'all!
