We finally have air!

After melting for about the last 3 weeks, we now have air conditioning!  At least now we can sleep.  The downstairs was finished yesterday after a long wait from when the upstairs air conditioner was put in (apparently the downstairs was more involved).  One of the many joys of home ownership!

Gwen finally got the chance to meet one of her second cousins (I think--she is Brad's cousin's daughter) on Tuesday June 17th.  Lydia was born just 2 days after Gwen on March 8th, and neither knew what to think of the other.  It was so cute seeing them together, and amazing how different the two are!  Lydia is tall and skinny and Gwen is short and plump.  Gwen also wouldn't stop talking during our visit, so even if Lydia wanted to talk, she wasn't given much opportunity. Sorry Lydia, Gwen will hopefully be better next time!
The girls are holding hands already!
The parents were having fun checking out the height difference--Gwen did get something from her Mom, shortness!
