Testing, testing . . . Here's August?

Did y'all know about this?

Automatic resizing
All photos uploaded in Google+ will be automatically resized to 2048 pixels (on their longest edge) and won't count towards your free storage quota.
All photos uploaded from the Picasa software or in Picasa Web Albums over the free size limit will count towards your 1 GB of free storage. When you reach your storage limit, any new photos you upload larger than the free size limit will be automatically resized to 2048 pixels (on their longest edge).

So let's test this out. . . . And it worked. Here I am thinking google is full of idiots and I'm the stupid one. I probably maxed out my storage space a long time ago and didn't even notice. :)

Greg was on TDY (out of town for work) for 15 days. Whew. It seems like I take way more pictures when he's not here. I must be bored or something.

From what I hear, when I was little I couldn't say "yellow"—I said "lello." My grandma would try get me to say "ya ya ya yellow" and I'd say "ya ya ya lellow." So this one's for you, Grandma.

Another block creation. She's very proud of them. Maybe because I make such a big deal about them.

They emptied every box of toys. Every single one. I thought I'd capture the chaos.

And another. This is me, in case you couldn't tell. Robot Mommy. The small green blocks are my earrings, white is my head, silver are my body, and yellow are my legs. Nice, eh? Maybe we have an abstract artist on our hands. Or just a little girl with a good imagination.

While Greg was gone we had a scheduled power outage, so we headed for the aquarium to kill time. It was supposed to be out from 8:15 a.m. to 2:15 p.m. We got back at 2:45 and the power was still out. At 4:45 I gave up and ordered a pizza. While we were out getting the pizza the power finally came back on. The great news? We have two more planned outages coming up. Yee-haw. (Or hee-haw, as Macy would say.)

Rest stop! I think I had more fun here than at the aquarium. It wasn't terribly humid and it was fun to wander around with the kiddos while they picked up random stuff. (Like lots of blossoms.)

I took this for Greg. I told you birds are creepy beasts!

This kid loves eyewear. (See below.)

I believe this is Robot Daddy. And Josh is officially in the cheesy picture stage.

Haircut! I really hated it at first (much shorter than I wanted) but it's starting to grow on me. The part I  really don't like is the front—she trimmed his hair on one side so it's all one length, like she was trying to fix his hairline. He got that wonky hairline from his daddy and believe me, the best thing you can do is let it be.

There so nice to each other in the morning. :)

And Josh still gets very excited when the garbage truck comes.
