An Update

Skylar is doing great! He's very tall and skinny. I guess he must get this from his grandfather on his mother's side. Or, perhaps his great grandfather on my mother's side. His first two teeth have come in. We recently took his 6 month photos. Some poses were typical. Others were in his Halloween costume (a yellow duck) and some in his Santa suit. We had a time getting the Santa pictures done because Skylar was trying to sleep. His day care is going great. I really like this place. And, Sky seems to like going as well.

In November, we will be making a trip to Kansas so that Sky can see his great grandparents. He's six months old and they've never had the opportunity to meet. I'm looking forward to this trip.

My business travel remains slow. A few months back I was told that I'd be spending two weeks a month in Paris. This fell through. Then there was another 2 week workshop in Paris to be held just after Thanksgiving. This has been moved back to at least January, possibly later. So, for the next couple of months at least, I'll be home all but 3 nights each month. And, I still get to work out of my house the other days! Working from home is great. I get more work done. I control the thermostat (my Lexington office is freezing in the winter and hot in the summer). Plus, I get to look the window overlooking my back yard. Sky remains in day care while I work.

Adventures at Double Stink Hog Farm

This weekend, we took Skylar to the Double Stink Hog Farm. They don't have hogs anymore. It's now a big pumpkin farm where they have fall festivals. We thought it'd be nice to take fall pictures of Skylar amongst pumpkins.
