More playing in the dirt and a happy Little Man.

Posted on by David Maxwell

I got to the farm about 6:45 and moved some rocks while it was still relatively cool. It was a pain to sort through the dirt pile for them, but thy will be nice to have. There are still a lot more to go. I hadn’t realized how dry things were until I was walking through what felt like inches of dust behind the house. Tomorrow it is supposed to storm, and for the first time I’m looking forward to it. That should help get the dust under control and cool things down a little bit. I’m pretty happy with how the grading is going, and the finished product should look pretty good.

Luke was in a pretty good mood this evening. He had a busy day. Liz was at the office any my parents, along with my aunt and uncle came to visit. We did tummy time and gave him a bath. I cooked more butternut squash in the air fryer. Both the owner’s manual and cargo cover for Liz’s new car arrived today. So did the key I ordered. I will go to to Ace tomorrow to get it programmed.

Another hot Tuesday.

I looked after Luke this morning until my mother arrived around nine. Then I went by the bank, fireplace store, and Lowe’s on my way to the farm. I did a little more work on the tractor before my dad arrived and we went into town to get some things from Ace and order cabinets at Big Box. Back at the farm we spread out the big dirt pile behind the house and now the area looks so much better. I hope to finish up the grading back there tomorrow. My aunt and uncle came by at the end of the day to check things out. They hadn’t seen the farm since just after we bought it. I drove back to the condo and played with Luke and we all had dinner.

Hi.

I spent a little time with the Little Man this evening. I read him a new book that came in the mail today and we played with the bookimal. He was in a good mood the whole time.

Walking and Wal-Mart.

Those were the highlights of the day We were able to get out before the heat. Afterwards we relaxed, moved stuff from Liz’s old car to her new one, and did a little organizing around the house. This evening we watched a Brandi Carlile concert special from Bluegrass Underground, saw a great sunset from our balcony, and gave the Little Man a bath. I also cooked some butternut squash in my new air fryer. It was pretty tasty. And we did lots of tummy time.

Long evening with the Little Man.

Liz has gone to a Taylor Swift concert this evening, so it is just me and Luke here at the condo. He just went to sleep, thankfully. It really hasn’t been too bad. We went on a walk right after Liz left, during which he fell asleep. He woke up raging about forty minutes later. It took three rounds of milk to calm him down. Then I put him in his jump suit and held him until he fell back asleep. Hopefully he is now down for the night.
