Summer's Gratitude

The days are so long right now (think four hour nights) and the sunshine has finally come.  There is much to be grateful for...

::Summer Reading
::Summer treats - Oh, Scottish strawberries are amazing!  (And the cheese cake was pretty amazing too - I chalked my need to make cheesecake up to pregnancy cravings.  It's at least a good excuse.)
 :: Help with making dinner and some pattern practice too.
 :: This smiley boy who loves mornings when I say we are headed to the beach.
 :: Weather warm enough to wear his chicken pants I made during the kids clothing week challenge in May.  (They are the Huck Finn Pants from Weekend Sewing)
 ::Shades of Blue - that's right folks we are expecting boy number three.  The pregnancy has been so different that I was sure it would be a girl, but no, there must be some other explanation.  Jim and I knew before being told this time - it was rather obvious (especially because we've been shown the same little part twice before on a scan).

Congratulations Emily!.
I really enjoyed your ordinary time banner at the top of the page. All that lovely green. And the Scottish summer pictures - we visited St Andrews last summer , it seems very distant now in the Philippine heat and thunder! Jo.
