August was a busy month for us with our home remodeling projects. We had our kitchen cabinets painted white and added some new hardware, Yes it was pretty before, but we loved our old kitchen in our condo and wanted to recreate it here. We love the results:

While our kitchen was being painted we stayed with mom and dad Dennis and mom Dennis helped me make the cushions for Jefferson's room. They turned out great. It was a fun DIY project.
Our zinnias came up from seed this month and the result was beautiful!
We tried to enjoy the last of summer with swimming, summer concerts, checking out the car show, Real soccer, and enjoying our garden veggies while eating on the deck as much as we could with friends and family.
And our little Jefferson Amal turned 9 months! We had a 9 month photo shoot at home to celebrate.
Jefferson is standing every chance he can get. His funny army half crawl has gotten more sophisticated and he is getting fast. Of course the dishwasher and refrigerator are his ultimate goal. He is eating everything he can and is 50ish percentile all around. He is an active sleeper and has gotten his legs stuck in his crib more than once so now we have the tradition of fixing him at night and laughing about his funny sleeping positions. Most times in the morning now when we get him he is standing in his crib and very proud. He can stand on his own 20 seconds now and counting. He made a friend at his baby class and they are the cutest together. He still loves his walks and delights everyone he sees.
